Visiting London in January... Suggestions?

I will be in London for almost two weeks in mid January. My visit is primarily for going to the theatre and visiting museums. I also hope to go hear some music while there. I have been in London many times at this time of year and I know it will be cold. So I will be prepared.

I would like to do a few things that are pin-up/retro/glamour oriented. I will definitely visit What Katie Did and hopefully Vivien of Holloway and Collectif.  I am definitely going to the V and A Museum to see the Hollywood costumes, even though I get to regularly see great Hollywood costume exhibits at the FIDM museum here in Los Angeles. Sadly, I will miss the ball gown exhibition that is also at the V & A.

I know a lot about London having been there so many times. But I certainly don't know everything. So I would definitely be interested in any suggestions from any of you UK PUGsters. So if you have info about places to shop in, activities to engage in, music to listen to, dances to dance at, etc, etc., please let me know.
