Soho’s narrow streets are filled with an array of independent boutiques, record shops, and unique venues, contributing to its bohemian and alternative atmosphere. Landmarks like Carnaby Street, once the heart of London’s 1960s fashion scene, and Chinatown, add to Soho's diverse character.
Soho has long been associated with London’s music and film industries, with famous venues such as Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club and historic connections to rock and roll, while also serving as a hub for nightlife and culture.

Geelong Lambswool
Geelong lambswool is renowned for its exceptional softness and quality. Sourced from the first shearing of young lambs in the Geelong region of Australia, it is prized for its fine, lightweight fibers. The wool is incredibly soft against the skin, making it ideal for clothing like sweaters and scarves.
Geelong lambswool is also known for its durability and warmth, providing excellent insulation without being bulky. The wool is often dyed in vibrant colors, and because it's naturally breathable, it helps regulate temperature, keeping you comfortable in various weather conditions. This makes it a popular choice for both high-end fashion and everyday wear.
