Frocking it the Vintage Way


Like a good wine, some things are better when they are aged. These same goes for vintage clothing and classic looks of a yester year. Think fur and pearls and you are on the right track.

Frock Around The Clock - which brings you the very best of Ireland's vintage, is the only event of its kind in Northern Ireland. At each fair you can expect to find a fabulous array of genuine vintage clothing, costume jewellry and accessories galore including hats, bags, shoes and gloves.

The latest vintage fair on 10 May brought in 900 visitors of all ages from all over Ireland, the UK and the US.

The next vintage fair is not until September but if you want to find out more information visit http://www.northernirelandvintage.com/

Each event promises a great day out, with a fun atmosphere of romance, nostalgia and quirkiness.

Exhibitors include Strictly Vintage, Lulu Rose, Oxfam Vintage, Zara Jewels and Vintage Rocks.

Another event worth keeping your eye out for is the Titanic Vintage Day which takes place on the 22nd August at The Pump House and the Northern Ireland Science Park, Belfast.
