While all the fun is going on, back at our South Street base we have our upcoming collections in preparation…

June Hang

For June we invite you into a white and floaty heaven of high summer textiles. Floral chiffons, delicate lawns and drifting silks and cottons from the early 20th century will fill our rails and have you dreaming of weekends well spent on the shores of West Bay. We won’t give too much away but it will certainly feel like summer has arrived!

July - August

And to round off the summer we end on our ever adored Sale! With extra rails to stuff the shop with goodies, we bring a mix of high end designer items from the likes of Jil Sander, Dries Van Noten and Miu Miu (to name a few) at discounted prices, as well as unexpected and unusual one off pieces from Mary’s travels around the world! With a rail of some of our Vintage treasures at sale prices too we promise it’s unmissable!
