Did Yardley ever branch out into clothes?

[themerchantsofvintage]

I have a 60s mod dress with a "Yardley Fashions" label. Would anyone know if Yardley of London ever branched out into clothing? Their website didn't provide much into except that they enjoyed an association with Twiggy and Shrimpton etc.,

I was surprised to see how well their vintage cosmetics can do. Gotta luv the names!

THANKS!

"Oh! de London " fragrance is very sought after, especially if NOS. The Faberge ones were too but the prices have come down ( like everything else, I guess).

I am always looking for the older cosmetic items, as that is one area of collecting that I enjoy as a hobby. Great question; I'm thinking that Yardley must have done a fashion line, though I do not know for sure. Do you have photos of the garment? Sounds cool! This is my treasured Yardley Glimmerick black cake eyeliner, second shelf, towards the left:

Okay, I want to come to your house and play!

Here's a pic of the dress:

Now there's one for the VPOD on Zuburbia! Fabulous, and perfect for this season.
The frangrant aroma, when I open that cabinet, is quite divine. I'm sure you would enjoy it!

Joules: are you a member of the International Perfume Bottle Club?

"Joules: are you a member of the International Perfume Bottle Club?"


Must be!



And here's the label that I forgot to post:

Not a member, but aware of the organization. I've sort of shifted focus with my collecting obsessions, but scent is a lifelong fascination, and I have some limited expertise in the area of perfume.

Perhaps that label will ring a bell with our members in the UK.
