Recently I did a little Q&A with Becky about occasion wear so for the next few weeks I’m going to be sharing some of the things we discussed.

This week it is all about how Becky buys our occasion wear. I asked Becky if she had a favourite brand to buy from?

Becky – A number if the occasion brands have beautiful showrooms in wonderful historic buildings in London which definitely sets the scene for what they are selling but if I had to choose one it would be Veni Infantino. They put on a proper catwalk show so you can see the outfits on a body and moving.

How far in advance do you do the buying?

Becky – Buying takes place around 7-9months ahead of it arriving in the shop. Each item is is made to order which is why it has to be done in advance.

Why do you only buy one in each size?

Becky – I usually only buy one in each size to make the collection a little more exclusive.
