We now have a DVD library...

Over the years we have built a library of over 200 books on vintage fashion and style, now housed in our Ladbroke Grove showroom. Customers are welcome to borrow books at any time at no cost, and can browse through our online catalogue to see what we have before organising a loan.

It makes sense for us to offer customers a similar service with DVD rentals. The way we source our stock is often influenced by iconic dresses from the movies - both cult and classic - so here is a selection of clips from the films we keep in our studio. We have many more on our shelves, so if you have a particular film in mind do get in touch to see if we have it.


Catherine Deneuve in Belle de Jour (1967)


Bette Davis and Marilyn Monroe in All About Eve (1950)


Michelangelo Antonioni's Blow-Up (1966) 


Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday (1953)


Colin Firth and Julianne Moore in A Single Man 2009

We have the same dress that Julianne is wearing in that clip. To read more about its history, click here. To view in our online boutique, click here [NB the store is offline until October 2015]
