This world-class shopping haunt is divided into northern "New" (1710) and southern "Old" (1690) halves. On New Bond Street you'll find Sotheby's, the world-famous auction house, at No. 35. But there are other ways to flirt with financial ruin on Old Bond Street: the mirror-lined Chanel store, the vainglorious marble acres of Gianni Versace, and the boutique of the more sophisticated Gucci, plus Tiffany's British outpost and art dealers Colnaghi, Léger, Thos. Agnew, and Marlborough Fine Arts. Cork Street, which parallels the top half of Old Bond Street, is where London's top dealers in contemporary art have their galleries -- where you're welcome to browse. Tube: Bond Street or Green Park.
