FASHION

Margate's independent fashion scene is small, deliberately curated, and genuinely interesting. You won't find high street names here but what you will find are shops run by people with a clear point of view, stocking labels you won't see everywhere else, and often selling their own work alongside things they've sourced carefully. It's the kind of shopping that takes a bit longer and usually results in something you actually wear for years rather than seasons. These are the shops we send people to.
