Charlotte Simone Names Wallace Collection, V&A, and Primrose Hill as London Inspiration Spots

Charlotte Simone, a British designer celebrated for her 1970s-inspired Penny Lane coats, has been launching two limited collections each year for over ten years, independent of the conventional fashion schedule. Her education in New York and Paris has fueled her creativity, influenced by her travels and vintage styles. In an interview with Whitewall, she mentioned that Notting Hill's flea markets and her grandmother's wardrobes significantly inspire her work. Completing a collection typically takes around ten months. Located near the Wallace Collection, her Marylebone office serves as a source of inspiration, along with visits to the V&A and Primrose Hill, known for its parks and markets. She enjoys Primrose Hill Bakery and celebrates special occasions at LPM. The Wallace Collection was entrusted to the British Nation in 1897.
