Tim Allan story and catalogue

The catalogue of Tim Allan’s gowns and other garments is now on-line, though we will be adding to it over the next week as photos are taken of some of the remaining garments and the miniature gowns. Have a look at it here.

Also on-line is the story of Tim Allan’s life, compiled largely from newspaper clippings in his own scrapbook. I have found it absolutely fascinating to read through. There seems to be very little on line about Tim Allan, so hopefully we are starting a trend!

Organisation for the Haute Couture Soirée is coming along, we are just about to print a colour flyer with photos of Tim’s garments and sketches, and you should see a beautiful poster appear near you soon! The image on the poster and the flyer is a colourised version of a black and white photograph which appeared in the NZ Herald in the 1980′s.

You can download the flyer here (pdf, 348kb)

In other news, we have just put up our Christmas displays, we’ve got lots of lovely Christmas decorations, but my favourite thing in the shop has to be the handbag tree! Well… why not?
