As a lead­ing UK and Inter­na­tion­al omni-chan­nel retail­er rang­ing from wom­enswear and menswear to home­ware and fur­ni­ture; Mata­lan offers some­thing for all. As of April 2019, Mata­lan has an impres­sive 230 UK stores and 30 Inter­na­tion­al fran­chise stores with­in Europe and the Mid­dle East, sup­port­ed with a rapid­ly grow­ing online channel.

Our sto­ry begins with one man and his vision; to bring vibrant, colour­ful, hand-craft­ed arti­san clothes from far­away places to the mar­kets of Lon­don. It is a jour­ney that start­ed on a hip­py com­mune in Ibiza, 1970, and fin­ished with an over­land trip east, through Afghanistan and India. Our founder, Peter Simon, returned from his life-chang­ing adven­tures to pur­sue a new pas­sion for beau­ti­ful, bohemi­an-inspired pieces with hand-print­ed, hand-woven and cro­chet design details, which he start­ed to trade from a stall on Por­to­bel­lo Road, Lon­don. Three years lat­er, he opened the first Mon­soon store in Beauchamp Place. The first Mon­soon col­lec­tions fea­tured clothes made with hand-loomed cot­ton and silk fab­rics, organ­ic veg­etable dyes and arti­san block-print­ing techniques.

END­LESS EXPE­RI­ENCE & KNOWLEDGE.ESTABLISHED IN 1854.

Man­n’s is one of the old­est music shops in Great Britain, and pos­si­bly the world, under the same ownership.

It’s cur­rent­ly run by Tim Mann, the great great grand­son of the founder. They moved to their cur­rent loca­tion in 1891 and have been there ever since. They retailed the first iron framed pianos before the first world war for less than half the cost of a mod­ern day tuning!
