For a tailored suit, go to Savile Row. For the contemporary art scene, head to Soho. For the royal treatment, head to Buckingham Palace. London is an endlessly diverse metropolis that cannot be characterized: chic meets punk; regal yet underground; modern and classic. The presence of these opposites gives the capital an indescribably chic feel.

Wander from private clubs and legendary theaters to bustling markets and candle-lit dining rooms, as the city reveals itself as a living tapestry of black cabs and Georgian mansions. Breathe in the capital's rarefied air in one of its many green spaces - Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, Regent's Park, Hampstead Heath - or with arms full of flowers purchased at Columbia Road Flower Market.

For Assouline's coffee table book "London Chic," author Charles Finch, the quintessential Londoner, opened the doors of the city's coolest tastemakers, most iconic institutions and hippest spots to photographer Mark Anthony Fox, who elegantly captured the people and places that represent today's London. The faces of London's high society, such as Dame Kristin Scott Thomas, Daphne Guinness, Ozwald Boateng and Jeremy King, to name a few, adorn the pages of London Chic, a testament to the English capital's enduring appeal.
