Starting life on the streets of London’s Notting Hill in 1973, it didn’t take long before the capital’s most trend-savvy hipsters were flocking to Portobello Market to lay their hands on a pair of the most in-demand jeans of the day, Pepe Jeans London. Indeed
from its origins as a market stall to a global fashion force, Pepe Jeans London is now launching in Pakistan.
