'Recession" in Bristol -
A lovely chat today with the lovely Gill in 'Recession' - 'Uncle Sam' are OK, but I found Gill wonderfully atuned to what she was doing, hence the link here.
Lots of vintage women's wear which may be of interest to Ivy Girls out there. The menswear side is currently being built up with plans for an impressive Autumn collection.

Quick revision - The RS offerings are now spanning '69 to '09. All one offs.

Just to tidy this up - The plan is to showcase classic English tailoring initially.
We'll test the waters with full blown Kosher Ivy Kit & go slow.

Coolness.

I have to say that I really like having some small connection to a shop once again. My first for 22 years.
Small shops run by independent retailers with a vision are worth so much more than any other way of shopping. Some lovely stock is being lined up for Autumn &, although I haven't asked yet, I'm hoping I'll be allowed to have a small hand in its presentation.

A nice little interlude this afternoon... Popped into Gill's, talked about Drag & even tried on women's shoes...
John Steed got a name check as a touchstone for the "RS" items coming up too...
I do love the company of the Hip.
