Editor’s Picks: Three Independent Market Stalls to Shop this Summer

1. Klasik

This vintage eyewear stand is in the address book of fashion editors and style savvy Londoners. It’s been an exclusive fixture since 2001, run by a small East End family business who really know their stuff. A revolving and eye-opening collection of opticals and sunglasses means you’ll come away with something special and unique. The authentic frames range from the 1930s–1990s and are offered with a prescription lens service. (Pictured is a very rare and collectable pair of sunglasses designed by Emilio Pucci, using his signature print, c1960’s)
