London has been named as the fashion capital of the world for the second year running, once again beating New York to the top spot. The rankings, compiled by the Global Language Monitor (GLM), also placed the continental cities of Barcelona and Paris in the global top five.

Paul Payack, president of the organisation, said that events such as the 2012 Olympics had helped to put the capital`s substantial fashion credentials in the spotlight once again, whilst the ongoing worldwide appeal of style icons like Kate Middleton has also served to highlight some of the beautiful clothes that are designed and worn throughout London each year. He commented that Middleton herself has been responsible for millions of pounds worth of global sales alone over the last twelve months.



If you are a fashion lover, why not arrange a stay in one of the fine London hotels soon and explore what is officially the most fashionable place in the world for yourself either later this year or next?
