If you're a committed high fashion lover, you'll be rather pleased to hear that Prada Group is bringing its Marchesi 1824 bakery to London.
Set to open on Mount Street this April (just across from the doors of The Connaught), the chic little bakery will serve everything from traditional Italian panettone to sugared almonds and gianduja chocolates.
Coffee aficionados will also be looked after at the very bling espresso bar and there will be a little shop (with ready-to-wear we hope) selling all sorts of treats, including an endless variety of sweets, ice cream and biscuits.
For those who have never heard of Pasticceria Marchesi, the legendary family-run pastry shop has earned widespread attention for its world-famous panettone and handmade confectionary. The Mount Street pastry shop will be the first location outside of Milan.
Details of the design are strictly top secret, but insiders tell us it's going to be very, very Wes Anderson. In English this basically means: Instagrammable.
What splendid news pre LFW, eh?
