For the people

Sometime in the early years of this millennium, Nigel Lawson and Steve Sanderson went for a curry somewhere in the north of England. When the meal was over they had decided to open a menswear store in Manchester and call it Oi Polloi. Sometime in 2014, Nigel and Steve had another chat and concluded that they wanted to take their menswear-store concept and export it down south, because, as Nigel once put it, “we’ve got nothing else to do”. So in May 2015 Oi Polloi opened in Soho, in the heart of the capital. We caught up with Steve who gave us the lowdown on his bipolar store empire.
