dresses to impress

Obviously I was not destined to go to London at the weekend for a reason, this was it!
I happened across a pile of vintage dresses and fabrics









LIberty fabrics?

Fantastic early 20thC Sanderson faded curtains
I think that this fabric is Liberty, could the bird one be Celia Birtwell?
gorgeous Horrocks
beautiful stripes & florals (Horrocks on right)

maxi dresses

a large Liberty wool square


a length of polka dot silk

all I have to do now is price them up, which will be interesting!
They will all be coming to Malvern on Monday.

    Wow! Terrific finds - am so jealous! Might have to try and get up to Malvern on Monday if I can. (Thank you for your comment on my blog re your mother's silk PJs! Mine were snapped up at Frock Me! on Sunday, though I was sad to see them go.)
