Thank you - I shall be in Cheltenham on that day as we are there for the two days horse racing preceeding it - so shall try to get along to it!!
 
I did more than get along to it. I got my partner to exhibit at it as we were there! He does quite a few vintage pin-up and period fashion images connected with the races and also does some clothing - his own designs and vintage - and was at Cheltenham races anyway.

It was a really nice event and met some nice people including Zoe Mortiboy who won the best dressed there and at Goodwood Revival.

I have written a bit on it at the bottom of my blog (which also includes a fashion shoot we did with some revamped vintage furs and new couture millinery at Cheltenham races the two days prior).
