To celebrate 130 years J.Sheekey partners with Vivienne Westwood. A terrace takeover inspired by on Westwood’s seminal print ‘Evolution of Man’.
 
For J.Sheekey, evolution is found in the rhythm of the West End itself, a restaurant shaped by theatreland’s energy, Soho’s history, and the slightly unruly spirit that has always defined London at its most alive. The print, spanning centuries of character, style, and identity, reflects the ever-changing cast of London itself, and the generations of actors, artists, rebels, and cultural figures who have passed through J.Sheekey’s doors over the last 130 years. 
 
More than an anniversary, the partnership is a celebration of London and the people who continue to shape it.
