LFW

Hectic start to the day….the doors open to the public at 5pm and there’s so many bits and bobs to do before our stand is complete! Harriet jetted off to Paris to the Premiere Vision event at 3am, so I’m on my own for the day! First stop is the Cloth Shop on Berwick road for all the essentials that obviously I forgot! Needle, thread, buttons and scissors! Faffing aside, its time to head back to Somerset house, to attach the loose labels and finish setting up the stall.

By 4.30 we are finally set up and ready to go! All the other designers and boutiques look amazing! We are surrounded by other boutiques such as, KJs Laundry, Suzannah, and House of Holland. The dresses in “Suzannah” are amazing I want to buy them all, the gorgeous 1940s silhouettes and prints are really eye catching! By 5pm the public start to pour in! It’s SO busy!

As for our collection….its getting a lot of attention! The public are loving it, which is really nice to see the general feedback and reactions from people! It feels really weird to have people trying the dresses on!! We haven’t made any sales so far….but hopefully over the weekend! Fingers crossed!

After a very hectic 5 hours I make my LONG journey back to Birmingham.
