We started the weekend early Friday when we attended the Cowbridge Fashion Week Fringe, organised by Cowbridge Hub to help some amazingly creative pupils completely re-design a blank dress by adding just about anything!
We set up our little workshop ready for the task ahead and sorted out all the fabrics ready for the girls to pick and choose what they wanted!
We had 90 minutes in total to upcycle 5 dresses fit for a fashion convoy on Cowbridge High Street, and although it completely took the wind out of us and I don’t think we stopped to breathe - it was very much appreciated and the girls looked fab!
Then today we trolled up to Bath, for the BathVA Vintage Sunday and although we sat in the car at 7am in -1 waiting for the windscreen to defrost, we eventually warmed up after endless amounts of tea and buscuits and thoroughly enjoyed our day!
Not only did we get lots of amazing feedback off some lovely people, we met the face of the Ethical Fashion Blog, got some brilliant future contacts and we also got a lot of interest in what we do and how we do it, so all in all its been a good day!
What a brilliant weekend we’ve had and this week is going to be as busy as ever! With a wedding dress to get cracking with, some bouquets and button holes for a lovely customer and a complete re-vamp of the work room but not before we get everything back to the shop ready to sell!
Please keep all of your feedback coming - good or bad we love to hear your thoughts!
Lots of love
E&W ♥
