There must be thousands of travel guides of London - after all it is one of the most famous travel destinations in the world - but internationally renowned illustrator and author Megan Hess has put an amazing and exciting spin on the travel adventure book.
London: Through a Fashion Eye is the long-awaited new travel title following from her bestselling titles on New York and Paris.
In her whimsical new book Megan takes readers on a fashion-lover's adventure through one of the world's most loved fashion cities, guiding them to the hottest places to eat, sleep and play, featuring fashion-themed restaurants, hotels and sites to visit as well as Megan's favourite places to shop.
"London is where I first began illustrating fashion, so I will always credit this city as being a place that sparked my creative journey. It's where I first realised anything in an artistic field is possible," writes Megan.
The book includes illustrations of Megan's favourite ensembles for London occasions, from visiting the galleries, to an engagement at the palace to a night at the Royal Opera.
London's much-loved tourist destinations are featured from The National Gallery to the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Chelsea Flower Show, Liberty, Fortnum and Mason (who could visit London and not have a high class afternoon tea), Claridges, the Ritz, Isabel Mayfair, Savile Row and much more.
Every page is illustrated in Megan's signature pen, ink and watercolour style.
