The lady who donated this gorgeous Laura Ashley dress to the shop told us it reminded her of summer evenings, walking on grass, floppy sun hats, men in floral shirts and white sports cars - after all it was the 1970s.
The dress with this fascinating history is being sold in Vintage Vision for £25, was made in Wales and is size 12.

What a fantastic idea this is and so clever. This customer makes jewellery wedding bouquets from recycled broken jewellery and they are amazing. She made her first bouquet for her own wedding but already has several orders for more. I was really grateful to have the opportunity to see this and will now keep any broken jewellery for her use.
