News and New Kitty

Good Afternoon to all you glamorous ladies and dashing gentlemen!
We're very happy to have been voted 'Best Vintage Reproduction Brand' by The Vintage Guide to London for the third year running. We'd like to thank all of our stylish customers for making this possible once again.

Speaking of which, here's what some of you gorgeous girls have been up to this week.

Lucie Luella looking fabulous in a shoot for Things & Ink. She wears our Grace in red duchess

Miss Rainbow is a summer sensation in our Gypsy Crop top.

Diablo Rose and Anna Fur Laxis wear our wiggle ready halterneck pencil dress and sarong.

Italian beauties Ladyvette wear halterneck circle dresses in satin.

Thank you to Kat Beadle who sent us this stunning picture of her wearing our red sateen circle dress.

These lovely ladies are a vision in our turquoise and white polka dot circle dress.

Where are you ladies wearing your Vivien of Holloway this weekend?  Make a note of these glamourous events:

Vintage High Tease sets sail from Poole this evening on a cabaret & burlesque boat cruise. Our Royal Palm sarong is a perfect blend of elegance and the exotic. And the matching bolero will keep you safe from the chilly air!

Vivien of Holloway fans in Valencia should definitely make a beeline for the Classic Custom Car Festival! Be sure to get some snaps of your VoH outfits. We love this one of mother and daughter act, Sincerely Yours.

In other news, we've been so excited about our brand new dress! Isn't she gorgeous? She has cap sleeves, a nipped waist, a full gathered skirt and sweet patch pockets. She buttons down the front and has a cutaway collar, all the favourite features of an early 50s day dress, with lightly padded shoulders to give a flattering shape. Kitty will be available online this afternoon. Have a fabulous weekend!

Vivien in Blogland

We always love to find that our customers are pleased with their purchases and their visit to our Holloway Road boutique; and we're even more delighted when they post about it on their blogs! Well, it's always nice to return the favour, so here are a few links to some great blogs that have been kind enough to mention us recently.

We were extremely flattered to read this eloquently written and witty account of long-time vintage devotee and London blogger Red Legs' recent visit to our shop. She makes some very good points about how a visit is a good starting point if you're unsure on sizing, how our dresses suit every size and shape of lady, and about the unfailing glamour of the Number One herself, Vivien! Ms Red Legs seemingly couldn't resist two of our dresses - a Day of the Dead Halterneck Circle Dress, and a gorgeous Green Satin one. We're positive you looked a dream in them both!

We were also featured on a fur-flung (but no less fabulous) Antipodean blog: Andi B. Goode. Andi looked lovely in one of our 1940s dresses, in a red print that is now sold out. We still have some fantastic prints available, but they're all selling very fast, so if you want to look as stylish as Andi, you'd better hurry to the site now!

Last but not least, we also found a Vivien of Holloway mention on the Natasha Bailie Vintage Clothing Company Blog. The eponymous Natasha fell in love with our Anchors Away Halterneck Circle Dress, and wore it to a wedding with the theme 'Dandies by the sea'. How appropriate! The fascinator and vintage style shoes look perfect with our frock. We hope you had a lovely time Natasha!
