It has taken a lot of blood sweat and tears, from all involved; Not the most glamorous, but the most honest account of the journey to get Paper Dress Vintage to its 5th anniversary..
To recognise this triumph of surviving recession and rain, and of striving to create something special, creative and unique that combines the best things in life (vintage clothing, quality craft beer & great music!) we are going to throw a big birthday bash on Friday 12th October!
On the night we will be holding an auction of a special commemorative 5th Birthday Paper Dress garment (yes, made from paper!), produced by our talented in-house seamstresses – as well as some unique paper clothing from the 1960s. Proceeds from the auction will go to anti-poverty campaigners War on Want who are active in anti-sweatshop practices around the world.
Live music will be coming from Paper Dress favourite beats and brass gents Future Swing Stories & Liverpudlian 60s beat combo The Romleys. Soft Tempo DJs, Soul Partizan DJs, & Jerk + Popcorn DJs will keep the party rocking till the early hours, with added pizzazz from our regular Go-Go Dancing friends The Meyer Dancers!
The night – which is open to all – begins with a complimentary drinks reception @ 7.30pm courtesy of Sailor Jerry & Hendricks Gin, soundtracked by Diamond Jive, our weekly Tuesday night Jive dancing crew!
