Wearable Vintage Fashion
Clare Bridge opened her boutique 'Second Hand Rose' in Worcester five years ago, turning her love and knowledge of vintage into a successful business. She has styled photo shoots and supplied period clothing to BBC costumiers as well as being filmed as a vintage expert for a daytime BBC show. She participates in high profile vintage events around the country as well as organising vintage events locally as part of WAVE (Worcester Arts and Vintage Events.) Jo Waterhouse is an experienced writer and author of several books specialising in sub-cultural art scenes including 'Indie Craft' and 'Concrete to Canvas'. She is an occasional freelance writer and has been wearing and collecting vintage clothing since her teens. She is also a vintage events organiser, working alongside Clare as part of WAVE, as well as working on the 'Second Hand Rose' website and promotion.
