CLAIRE CULLEY

Vintage style blogger 'She's called Claire' aka Claire Culley lives in Brighton and is one half of newly opened Creative Hub Super+Super in the South Laines. She likes nothing more than a cup of tea (gin) and a piece of cake and can regularly be found throwing questionable shapes in the darkest corners of her favourite Brighton haunts.

CARRIE MACLENNAN

Carrie is a compulsive bric-a-brac-er, self-confessed vintage mag hag and old time country music fan. A devotee to what she lovingly refers to as 'granny chic', she rather enjoys teaming her twinset with a nice comfy pair of elasticated waist trousers. One half of vintage daft DIY duo, Made in the Shade, Carrie has recently uprooted her Glasgow-based business and relocated to East London. Her blog, Carrie Not The Kind Of Girl You'd Marry, launched last year and documents her misadventures in fashion, craft, cookery and, um... life.

CHRISTINA BARBIAN

Christina resides in Nottingham with her ever-growing selection of 60s dresses & her slowly expanding collection of 60s vinyl. She loves a beehive and can be found on a mod dance floor or scouring local charity shops. Her love of vintage came from a childhood listening to 60s records, a mum who regaled with stories from her mod heydays and a father who was an antique dealer. Suffering from a mild obsession with the girlfriends of the rolling stones, she can occasionally be found DJing vinyl at 60s club nights, taking the money on the door of The Chitlin’ Circuit Mod Club or organising The Nottingham Vintage Flea.

JOEL AND LUCY FROM MADE IN BRISTOL

Joel is primarily a writer of fiction, lyrics and music journalism. His interest in vintage fashion stems from a broader interest in cultural trends, and an eye for aesthetic quality. His studies of music allow him to understand, and generally appreciate the relationship that the arts have long held with fashion. He has a fondness for classic cuts and enjoys nothing more than snuggling up in his Norwegian wool. Lucy resides in Bristol and strives on the scene there. Since being a child wearing hand me downs from the 70s a love of collecting all things vintage has become some what of a passion.
