I described the cut I was looking for, and lucky for me they had lots of things cut that way. After trying on a lot of tops, dresses and coats, I ended up with the most amazing coat, made in Germany of all cotton. It is quite fashionable and also functional. It was expensive, but worth every penny. I also got wonderful feeling black leggings, a gorgeous dress from France, some very cool reading glasses and stylish and functional fingerless gloves with leather palms. They also have a home furnishing section, as well as a restaurant which I understand has delicious food. What a find !!!!!! This place is retail therapy at its best for someone who wants clothing with panache, somewhat avant grade, and somewhat bohemian. It might be my favorite all time clothing store!

It's also a restaurant with a wall of windows and terrace too!! Best breakfast in England yet!!read more

One of the better bijou clothing stores in Bath. You always find a collection of unique and…read moreinteresting clothes on the racks. However, be prepared to pay for that quality and uniqueness. Ground floor is for women, with a downstairs area for men. A nice place to buy yourself a clothing treat.

We've always had a soft spot for good design. We opened our doors in 1985 to share our inspiration and our ideals, and we set about creating a trio of spaces in which you can connect, discover and be inspired. We work with designers and collections that share our values, placing design and quality front and centre. We seek out unique homewares, mixing antique and modern. We are curators, sourcing and editing the pieces we love to reveal new combinations. This is everyday style for good living.

Such a cute store!…read more Really helpful and friendly staff. I dodged in after touring the Roman baths and purchased a gorgeous blouse. I also tried on a few tops and dresses. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for more of these stores the next time I visit England.

They specialise is big bold prints, maxi dresses and summer apparel. The quality of the clothes isn't great, but extremely reasonable for the price. It's a great place to impulse buy if something catches your eye. They tend to put their best pieces downstairs (which has always seemed a bit self defeatist!) so make sure you take a wander down there. The shop assistants are extremely smiley and sweet whenever I go - must be all the floral prints and bright colours. A nose around Apricot is an instant mood lifter!

Jane Noman is a fantastic clothes shop. The clothes are reasonably priced, and good quality. If…read moreyou're looking for a nice dress, or a pretty top to go out in, then Jane Norman is the place to go! It also sells bags and excessories to match the clothing in store. It is only a small shop, which means clothes rails are close together, so squeezing in and around people does happen, but it's worth breathing in to find that perfect evening outfit.

The name of this shop is pretty misleading; rather than selling vintage clothes (in an instant)…read morethey actually stock 'vintage-inspired' apparel and accessories. Even though this revelation was a bit disappointing, I soon got well and truly over it when I realised just how much I loved their designs. They seem to specialise in feminine subdued colours like pinks, greys and browns as well as bows and flowers. The prices are a bit more expensive than the high street (around £45 - 60 for a day dress) but their sales are phenomenal with up to 75% off. Not the best place for anyone who is a vintage junkie (they may be 'inspired' by retro, but their designs are very trendy) but there are some pretty designs on sale here.

And did you know that this company cuts for three different shapes?? Amazing compared to all the other shops I've been in....lots of clothes all for a shape that doesn't fit me. I put on several outfits and they all fit beautifully. I'm curvy. I was amazed to see my curves on display with so much elegance. If I could, I would!!!!

A small sebago store I poked my head into on the way back to the hotel coming from high tea at the…read morepump room. I saw the kate middleton shoes in the window and that they were having sale on men and clothing items and some shoes. Now that I got to see the sebago shoes in person (because I couldn't find them in the US anywhere) I loved them and ordered them the minute I got back to the hotel (couldn't buy them in store because my luggage/suitcase didnt have enough room). The quality of everything in this store is great, same par with russell and bromley quality of shoes (which they have not too far away from this store). Same with clothing, great. Wish I could have bought this one jacket I really liked but it wouldn't have fit into my suitcase (next time lesson learned I'm bringing two suitcases lol- there is just too much good shopping in the UK). For those in the US, think the quality of sperrys (since its the popular boat shoe in the US) but I think the leather quality is a tad better (its softer and probably easier to break it). If your more curious on this you can google and their is more information and discussion boards on this. Sebago is more expensive though than sperrys in general and usually their is a reason for it (but then again, everything in the UK is more expensive in general). Overall, great little sebago store. Im glad I saw one in bath because I never ran into one in london surprisingly. I saw Reiss, Hobbs, Harrods, LK Bennett several times, etc. But never a sebago......wierd lol.

This is my favourite shop in Bath! It is a treasure trove of vintage clothing and accessories…read moretucked away off Milson Street. I recently bought a vintage 1920's beaded silk chiffon dress for a wedding, it's so beautiful & I feel amazing wearing. What I love about the pieces from here is that every piece is unique so you know you'll be the only one wearing it! The shop is well worth a visit - the stock seems to change every week so theres always something new and exciting in there!

But even though it's part of a chain, House of Fraser should be commended for making it look as though it's an independent department shop. Spread over three levels it's a one-stop shop for ladies who love retail; there's fashion, cosmetics, homeware and a cafe to sit down after an exhausting shopping session. It may all seem a bit middle class but look closely and there's plenty for younger girls too. There's an Oasis, Benefit, MAC and All Saints to name but a few stands. Not the cheapest of places, but a lovely place to go if you're trying to please a whole family of shoppers. They also hold weekly one-off events so make sure you pop in to see what's happening in-store.

Ladies clothes - lots of concessions, Planet, Paul Costelloe, phase eight etc plus House of Fraser own brands linea and platinum. Good undies section, and leather handbags and gloves. All the major perfum people are there - use the top entrances to get straight to these. Homeware a bit hit and miss, always worth a look when it's a 20% off day. Staff are either very young or old (some of the ladies in the clothes area must be over 70 - lovely people, not so hot on the till technology) and are ALWAYS pushing the storecard.
