Seemed quite empty (Tuesday afternoon) but then given the niche market (saw advertising for "Billionaire Boys Club") is not that surprising. That also explains the questionable choice of fashion available. There were enough hints to suggest this is really for the super rich foreigner who knows neither style now value for money, which is partly why it may be amusing for others to witness.
Having walked in and found to young buff metrosexuals at the ladies beauty section having their makeup applied, I was under no illusions as to what else I should expect. There feels to be a sense of insecurity throughout the shop, based purely on the number of guards and such, but then if you are sticking garments at this price, you probably need to guard it carefully, sadly that means if you look like a normal person you will likely have eyes on you from the get go.
I know establishments like this have their place in the world but it's quite an odd experience nevertheless and possibly one you might experience once but not twice. In fact is feel more comfortable in Jermyn Street where prices are just as high but quality is assured and a sense of normality still prevails.
Sorry Harvey Nichols, no ill will meant.
