We've been Gok'd!

On the 8th February you might have spotted our red pencil skirt in Gok's High Street Catwalk when he was experimenting with some 'Clashing Colours'.…

More strictly love for Vivien!

This weekend's Strictly Come Dancing featured a rather splendid 'Swing-A-Thon', in which every one of the lovely ladies was wearing a different Vivien of Holloway swing dress! Have a look!

Dressing to the nines!

So many parties and so little time (or funds) could be the motto of the festive season. Balls, work parties, family gatherings, even weddings - so much goes on throughout Christmas and New Year, and we all want to look our best, even when burning the candle at both ends!



Wearing a truly spectacular dress, one that will turn heads everywhere you go, stop men dead in their tracks and make girls whisper in awe; that's all you really need to get through to the new year in perfect vintage… Continue

First of all, we have the gorgeous Anna modelling our new Autumn Lily halterneck circle dress!

Strictly come Vivien!

As huge fans of the jive and all things rock 'n' roll, it was an honour to have our dresses and petticoats featured on Sunday's Strictly Come Dancing! We've been associated with the show before, when they put Alisha in one of our swing dresses for a photoshoot... but it's nice to see them in the dancing action they do so well, on the wonderful show dancers.



Have a look!





We can't think of a more fitting choice than our halterneck circle dresses in… Continue

Vintage style on the street!

I think we can all agree that it's been a whirlwind few months for celeb-spotting, here at Vivien of Holloway. We couldn't be more delighted with our latest five minutes (or more) of fame - our pink Sweetheart Halterneck Circle Dress was seen in none other than Coronation Street!





Corrie turns 50 years old on the 9th December this year, and is one of the UK's best loved soap operas. It holds the grand honour of being the world's… Continue

A very vintage halloween!

As the end of October approaches, there's one date we all look forward to here at Vivien of Holloway. Halloween is the perfect excuse to get dressed up (not that we need any excuse), and really get creative. While a walk about town on All Hallows Eve will reveal an abundance of green face paint and frayed bandages, we're definitely advocates of a high glamour, vintage couture look to your costume, whether you're portraying a sexy pin-up witch, or a bloodthirsty pirate wench, wearing one of our… Continue
