3. See Chelsea in Bloom
This year’s theme “Flowers in Fashion” has transformed storefronts across Chelsea into full-scale floral installations. Wander along Elizabeth Street and check out the displays.
Then look out for the Monica Vinader x Robson Stannard hand-painted display on Duke of York Square - it’s bold, brilliant and completely unexpected.

"‘Flowers in Fashion’ will see the neighbourhood transformed into London’s most elegant runway, with inspiration taken from its fashion legacy, style icons, muses and more."

We’re at the Chelsea Barracks Spring Fair all weekend with a curated selection of our home fragrance favourites. Come by, say hello, and discover other independent makers, designers and interiors brands in the calm of the courtyard followed by lunch at Catalonian spot The Campanella.
