How I Shop: David Gandy on lawns, lingerie and classic cars

David Gandy is one of fashion's most recognisable faces, having starred in campaigns for Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry and Hugo Boss. He was the first man nominated for model of the year by the British Fashion Council, designed a bestselling range for Marks & Spencer from 2014 to 2019, and launched David Gandy Wellwear in 2021.

He also supports several charities and backed the Centre for Social Justice’s Lost Boys report. His latest treat was a Cobra Fortis electric lawnmower, and he now owns three — the lawn, he admits, is a current obsession. He mixes M&S food with daily shopping at Waitrose and is fond of the Italian deli next door to his East Sheen store; online he often browses Andrew Martin for interiors, while Thom Sweeney’s Old Burlington Street townhouse is his favourite bricks‑and‑mortar shop because, he says, "it gets into the male psyche." At home he controls things with the SmartLife app, makes coffee with a Nespresso machine and buys Nespresso pods on repeat.
