Vintage Rocks!

For those of you not fortunate enough to have made it along to our London Fashion Week event Vintage Rocks! then we have a few snaps below to show you just what you were missing!

With a catwalk show featuring the best A/W picks from some of our fave London boutiques and vintage connoisseurs it really was a treat for any vintage lover. The show moved through the decades from 50s to 90s, showcasing 10 outfits for each, so what ever your style we had all angles covered. 

We have more images to follow but here's a few to get you started...

Baroque Splendour...

As unfortunate as it may seem, A/W fashion is now hitting the shops. The only upside to the change in season (so sadly when summer has rarely appeared this year) is the fabulous new trends to start experimenting in. One of our faves is the opulent glitz and glamour of Baroque splendour, plush textures, rich jewel tones and decadence, what's not to love?
