With a little bit of lace.....Upcycled Vintage dresses




With a little bit of tweaking and a little bit of lace, the people of Pop Boutique have created their own range of the recycled vintage dresses. This form of upcycling vintage is nothing new to us here at Godiva, it has been helped us grow over the years and this type of reworking is part of our core beliefs here, so it's great to see a label do it well!
Each dress is a one-off creation, breathing new life into some lovely prints and fabric of bygone years. The lace collars add a very vintage and feminine touch. The waists are elastic making them an easy fit and allows for the addition of your favourite skinny belt accessory.
We have a great varied range in store right now and plan to put them online also. At £32.50 these reworked dresses are a must for any fashionista this season.

Sabine Mitsch Milliner creative fasinators








Sabine Mitsch Millinery started making hats on a whim, after originally training as an illustrator and graphic designer. A course in Costume Design at Central St Martin's, London, sparked the passion and love for making and designing hats and fascinators. 
 
Sabine hats are mostly made from natural materials such as silk and wool-felt, also incorporating up-cycled materials as well as vintage lace and ornaments. All hats are made the traditional way using wooden hat blocks and are fully lined. Embellishments of feathers, silk pleats, buttons, beads, vintage lace and vintage jewellery are skill fully applied to create these stunning one-off of creation.


Inspired by art, design, nature and tales Sabine Mitsch Millinery brings to each head-piece lightness, creativity and confidence of shape and colour. 

Sabine's hats make the perfect companion not only to a wedding outfit but as a day wear hair accessory.

One of the most surprising things about these beautiful head pieces is the price! Most of these featured are £50-£65. 

All stocked in store now.
