Mishka was created in 2000 and has since become a bit of a Crouch End set institution with clients including stylists, actresses and costume designers. They stock a range of period clothes and accessories from Victorian right up to yesterday with delicious little vignette pieces like a perfectly boxed pair of 1920s shoes which sends the pulses racing back in time. 
Sarah and Lucy have written such an infectious post about their first visit that I think I’m going to let them sell it to you (see their entire piece at https://sacybardhail.wordpress.com/2014/02/19/the-best-shop-in-london-ever).
‘The vivacious Lizzie Greene was kind enough to speak to us at length about her shop and many of the treasures inside. Her passion and her enthusiasm really added to the experience- never again will we be content with the lack lustre service offered up by many of Mishka’s peers. To hear the cultural and historical context of the pieces we were interested in gave us a unique shopping perceptive and made us really appreciate the items we purchased. We are both avid vintage shoppers- we’ve been around, honestly nothing compares to this.
