Cafe Life, London Style: Tea with Alison Whelan on the King’s Road

Posted by Rebekah Roy on December 29th, 2007

img559 Cafe Life, London Style: Tea with Alison Whelan on the Kings Road I lived in Paris for quite a few years and I became addicted to cafe life. I love people watching while having good conversation. I’d met Alison Whelan several times over the past few years and always had wonderful but short intense fashion conversations. We never really had the opportunity to have a really long chat, so we agreed to meet for tea on the Kings Road! Alison’s super cool and one of my favourite people. I find her totally inspiring and truly interesting, I can chat and listen to her for hours as she’s a great story teller. She is also a very talented art director (she’s worked with Tank, Prada and Liberty) and she’s a co-founder & chairman of Fashion Business Club.
