This is a great time of year in the shop when all the new season deliveries arrive. It’s always exciting to open the boxes and see what lovely garments will soon be available instore.  We’ve already had some casualwear from Hartford, BZR, Day Birger et Mikkelson and Inwear and now the occasion wear has arrived.

Libelula has produced some gorgeous colours and prints again and we have a variety of versions of the classic but ever lovely Millie dress along with some new pretty shapes to check out. Tara Jarmon is all about bright, bold colours in classic Tara petite shapes.  We’ve already had a very strong reaction to Aideen Bodkin with lots of jacket and dress combos.  Nocturne has already been featured in this post and Ann Louise Roswald is all about sumptuous detail as always.  Have a look at a few teaser pictures below. However you need to come into the shop to see AND feel everything in gorgeous detail!

Wednesday  8th of June sees the annual Katharine Bird Summer Party. It’s a chance for all the regulars to spend the evening in a relaxed atmosphere getting advice for the up coming major summer events whilst enjoying the obligatory Pimms and nibbles. There are great gifts for those who chose to buy on the night with a free scarf on purchases over £30 and a free Day Birger tote bag if you are so kind as to spend more than £100 on the night.

With Ascot coming we have beautiful dressess from Libelula, Bombshell, Tara Jarmon, Joseph and more and if this glorious weather continues then a blouse from Baby Ceylon or Inwear would be as perfect as strawberries and cream at Wimbledon or even Andy Murray winning it!!

If you cant make the evening let us know by emailing us or just plain calling us and if there is anything we can do for you please just ask. We have perfect ’substantial fascinators’ that conform the the rules of the Royal Enclosure at Ascot and maxi dresses from Nougat, Avoca and Hale Bob all fit the rules for the length of your skrit at Henley. And if you still aren’t sure whether you should wear black at a wedding, come and have a chat.

Finally, since all the publicity around the Royal Wedding, more and more of you are discovering the beauty and easy style of Libelula’s wedding dresses. If you’re not in the market yourself, how about telling a friend. Remember we are the exclusive stockists of the complete range.

If you didn’t recieve an invite to the late evening, remember to send us an email to join the exclusive email list: info@katharinebird.co.uk
