The Village BicycleLondon socialite and Jardine Matheson heiress, Willa Keswick, is the stylish young thing behind The Village Bicycle, a boutique inspired by 1960's London vintage store, 'Granny Takes a Trip'. Following the closure of her a short-lived nightclub venture on Swallow Street (which shut after just six months) Willa is back with this style store in Notting Hill, filled with clothes and accessories that she would like to buy. Bored of intimidating middle-aged shops, Willa set up the conceptual boutique with the intention of bringing shoppers something different. The Village Bicycle certainly stands out on Ledbury Road where neighbouring shops include Matches, Joseph and Wolf & Badger. On the rails are a mix of vintage and contemporary clothing from the likes of Mark Fast, Todd Lynn, Bodyamr, Tom Binns and Eleven Paris exclusive collaborations and own brand designs. Other lines will include jewellery, sunglasses, books, music, art and furniture as well as art curated by Tyrone Wood with prices ranging from £2 to £2,500.
