The trend for investing in original pieces of Vintage clothing is not waining in the UK. The reason being that these items hold their value in an uncertain market....
Deal in Kent is a small, unspoilt seaside resort however was not the place I would have expected to find Delpierre Antiques a shop selling a top of the range collection of quality vintage clothing that certainly rivals London's offering...
Clearly there is the spending power in Deal for this kind of a fashion investment and style, it reflects the growing sophistication of the place. Deal is soon to have a high speed rail link with Charing cross which will mean that the train journey will be cut by 30mins from 2 hours to 90 minutes...
