All Saints

Fashion Store

All Saints! A treasure trove of chic, edgy fashion that has been setting trends and captivating the style-conscious for three decades! This iconic British brand is like a cool, mysterious cousin to the high street - a little bit dark, a touch of grunge, and a whole lot of sophistication. Picture this: You step into an All Saints store and you're immediately enveloped in the intoxicating aroma of their signature scent - leather and incense, a scent that whispers tales of rock 'n' roll glamour and urban adventure. The walls are adorned with vintage-inspired fixtures, the lighting is moody yet inviting, and the music is a carefully curated blend of indie and alternative tracks that resonate with the brand's rebellious spirit.

The racks are a testament to the brand's enduring love affair with leather. There's the iconic biker jacket, of course, in all its buttery soft, studded, and zipped-up glory. It's the kind of jacket that makes you feel like you could conquer the world or at least the nearest catwalk. Then there are the leather trousers, skirts and

cashmere jumpers, cut to perfection and begging to be paired with a silk blouse or a slinky camisole for a look that's equal parts tough and elegant.

But it's not all about the leather. All Saints boasts an impressive array of garments that play with textures and fabrics. You'll find cosy knits, tailored blazers with just the right amount of slouch, and dresses that whisper sweet nothings of seduction with their intricate lace and sheer detailing. The leather legging is another story - it's good quality, it's stretchy, and it hugs your body like a second skin, promising to only get better with every wear and tear.

I have to admit, like all High Street fashion today, I find the quality has slipped a bit but All Saints still rise above the rest for me in terms of the offering.
