Read MoreOur first ATIKA Art Attack!
Read MoreThe Newport Street Gallery is pretty overlooked in my opinion.
The building itself is so beautiful. The outside is imposing and brooding, while the inside is an airy space, expected by any gallery. The iconic spiral staircases are beyond dreamy and always a pretty good spot to photograph or be photographed on.
Read MoreThis months best seller, our Mini Bags! We have loved seeing how you style our Mini Bags with your fits. Below we’ve collated some of our favourite looks from Instagram so keep those tags coming!
Read MoreWe compiled a diverse playlist of our current favourite tracks by UK artists. Covering the full spectrum of Hip/Hop and Grime this little island has to offer. Featuring: Headie One, Flohio, Novelist, Slowthai and many more.
Read MoreFrom since I can remember, I’ve loved rave culture. Probably due to my older brother being a teen in the 90s and him listening to a lot of Happy Hardcore and DnB. He even had a Helter Skelter bomber jacket which I remember thinking was THE shit when I was about 7. I rang him up about a year ago asking if he still had it because I wanted to wear it and also knew it was worth a few bob now, but his wife made him chuck it out… Gutted.
Read MoreSweet Harmony: Rave | Today is a whole exhibition dedicated to the rave culture and club scene of the 80’s and 90s. We recently visited the Sweet Harmony exhibition over at the Saatchi Gallery.
Read MoreOn Saturday 7th September, we will be hosting an “ATIKA Art Attack”. An art, zine and comic book fair in collaboration with one of our in-store concessions @operationcollect!

Read MoreTo showcase some of our top sellers and some of our new pieces, we had a photo shoot around Shoreditch last week with two lovely girls. This should give you some inspo on how to style our REMIX pieces together or with items you may already own. We place emphasis on sustainability which is why all of our stock is made from either upcycled remnant fabric or are reworked vintage pieces.
Read MoreATIKA Studio is an in-house brand that began in October 2018. The creators of REMIX by ATIKA wanted to bring their reworked element to more classic pieces of vintage. Each range consists of unique hand-made pieces for a limited time (once they’re gone, they’re gone!)
Read MoreATIKA Studio is our capsule collection of limited edition pieces, reworked vintage garments and fabrics. All pieces are handmade in our Studio at 55 - 59 Hanbury Street and are now available in store.
Read MoreIt’s our second part in our series of “You’re more than your day job.” We started this project due to us working with so many talented and hard working people. We’re excited about introducing members of our team, their talents and side hustles.
Next up is Bex! She’s our eCommerce and Marketing Manger here in store. Bex is also the founder of Babygirl Studio, a bespoke hand-painted clothing brand that we have here at ATIKA. Babygirl was founded in 2017 after an influencer asked Bex to make a hand-painted vintage jacket for her for London Fashion Week. The rest is history!
Read MoreWhen I was younger, being a boy and being into fashion caused people to immediately label you as gay (for me, it was obviously true), but it would always be said as a negative. But guess what, times have changed!
Whilst there were openly queer designers of the past such as Thierry Mugler, Gianni Versace and Hubert De Givenchy, the uprising in explicit, unapologetic and innovative queer designers has risen to amazing new heights.
Read MoreI created a Pride playlist for ATIKA with the intention to embody what pride is - complete inclusivity, rebellion and fun!
I couldn’t help but make something which is 7 hours and 34 minutes long (and counting.) Mainly because of the breadth of artistry that people of the LGBTQ+ community and our allies have made. There’s everything on there, you’ve got your classic Kylie bangers as well as more underground emerging artists such as Le1f and Angel-Ho.
Read MoreLet’s take a minute to talk about Jenny Holzer...
Whether you are familiar with her name or not, you will most likely have come across some of her work. Especially her neons!
Currently a fixture in the ARTIST ROOMS at TATE MODERN until 7th July. So if you haven’t already been, you better go before the exhibition comes to an end.
With her feminist approach to important messages, the work is powerful and visually pleasing in one fell swoop.
Read MorePride is here and this year we’re doing something extra special to celebrate an amazing cause. We’re partnering with akt charity, a charity that focuses on LGBTQ+ youth on a national level. For the month of July (London pride is on the 6th of July) we at ATIKA, are going to be home to a rail of merchandise straight from akt. We will be selling their tees and totes and are super excited to be working with a charity that is doing something so important.
