Essex Vintage Fashion Fair - 28 March 2010

When you move to London from abroad, you have so many new and exciting places to go and visit, events to join, people to meet...that you hardly go outside the city.

Having moved from Italy just a few months ago, I must confess that I've never gone further than Richmond! So, when I found out about the Essex Vintage Fashion Fair I thought, yes, this is the right occasion to go and see the rest of the country. Vintage fashion and short break...sounds a good union!

So, leaving from Liverpool Street Station, next 28th March I'll be heading  to Brentwood, Essex.

The Fair is organised by Michele and Stephen and is open to entrepreneurs, traders, collectors and just about anyone who has an interest in vintage and vintage inspired clothing, fashion accessories and fashion-related items covering the period 1920's to the 1980's.

The fair is quite young and to  celebrate the first birthday, a contest gives chance of winning £200.00 worth of vintage clothing!! Be there or be square.
