A
Strand Arcade
With its stained-glass windows and iron-lacework balconies, this quirky centre makes for a truly atmospheric shopping trip. Built in 1892, this is the city's only Victorian arcade to survive in its original form and it rivals the QVB in the ornateness stakes. Three floors of designer fashions, Australiana and old-world coffee shops will make your short cut through here considerably longer. Top Australian designers commune and collude on level one: Leona Edmiston, low-cut, butt-hugger jeans from Bettina Liano, devilishly daring gear from Wayne Cooper, Sydney’s best swimwear from Zimmermann and fishnets and flounce from Alannah Hill. Jeweller Love & Hatred is also here.

Westfield Bondi Junction
Vast. That’s the only word to describe Australia’s flashest shopping mall. Expect to get lost; the space–time continuum does funny things as you explore the 438 stores set over six levels. It’s even worse in the mazelike underground car park. Big-brand fashion outlets include Morrissey, Bracewell, Calibre and Leona Edmiston, alongside the big internationals such as Hugo Boss, Armani and Versace. Australia’s two big department stores – Myer and David Jones – do battle here, plus there are cinemas, bars, food courts… Everyone’s spending up big, but the vibe is oddly depressed – smiles on faces are rare here.

World Square
The old Anthony Horden & Sons department store on this site was demolished in the '80s, and it's taken 20 years for World Square to emerge in its place. City-slickers have been rewarded for their patience with coffee shops, sushi bars, a supermarket, shoe stores and a huge Rebel Sport outlet for every conceivable bat, ball or racket.

Broadway Shopping Centre
Inside the rejuvenated Grace Bros building (check out the cool old globes above the facade), this centre has dozens of shops, a food court, a cinema complex and two 24-hour supermarkets. There’s also a massive Rebel Sports outlet with every conceivable bat, ball, shoe and racket.
