This was the epicentre of London's swinging sixties fashion, with designers such as Mary Quant opening up boutiques here and bands like the Who and the Rolling Stones hanging out and performing at nearby music venues. While for many years it became better known as a tourist destination with groups posing under the famous arches, recent revitalisation, including pedestrianising the area, has brought it back to the shopping forefront. Carnaby Street has a range of global brands (American Apparel, Miss Sixty, Jack Wills), as well as independent stores, which are concentrated in the arcades of Kingly Court including vintage Stronboli's Circus, women's boutique Birdcage and crafts at Buffy's Beads.
