Parade! … Talking of buttons and all things sewn, stroll up the hill to Kate Bramwell Cole’s shop where you can buy her collaged one off pieces. It is just a hop and a skip from there to enter the rather extraordinary world of vintage haberdashery at Wayward, 68 Norman Road. Dive in to spools, braids, trims and bolts of fabric. You never imagined you needed so much!
Vintage and glamour galore is a saunter away at Xanadu also on Norman Road and don’t forget the warehouse- sized, stuffed to the rafters Stuff on Sea on Grand Parade for retro style.
