The Slippy Nippy Slip Dress

TELL ME MORE

Hairy Mary is in cahoots with the Portobello Road vintage shop, Chillie London for this upcoming collection of repurposed, vintage sportswear. Re-using old bits and bobs is Hairy’s speciality and Chillie London is choc-a-block full of both bits and bobs. 

The “Chillie Mary” collection is a vibrant mash up of sporty tracksuits, frilly trims, vintage slips and crochet doilies. It’s forgetting your PE kit, rifling through lost property and coming out in Mrs Havisham's drawers (we’ve all been there).It’s gothic, it’s punky, it's lacey, it's racey, it’s frilly and it’s silly. What’s more, this smorgasbord of eclectic offcuts and retro sports kit is totally sustainable, so hip hip hooray! Home run! Own goal! Leave it all on the field boys! Anything else?
