H&M spin-off Arket offers reasonably priced, quality threads and accessories for men, women and kids. Especially good for essentials – including tees, shirts and sweaters – the look is typically Nordic: clean, uncomplicated and understated. Accessories include beauty products, homewares and stationery items, and there's a New-Nordic-inspired cafe in the basement, serving everything from overnight oats to fresh salads and sandwiches.
