House of Fraser launches the vintage-inspired Biba Bridal collection

Biba_bridal

The initial collection of Biba for the House of Fraser didn't exactly set the world alight, bit the forthcoming Biba Bridal collection might find the company a significant niche market.

It's a limited edition collection of seven designs, sold in runs of 100 for each, along with a range of accessories, all with a vintage influence that's said to reflect the brand's heritage. One of the designs is pictured above to give you an idea of what's coming.

Look out for the range in February, sold in sizes 6 – 18 at the Bluewater, Dundrum, Glasgow, London Oxford Street, London Westfield and Manchester stores, as well as online. Prices are said to range from £575 through to £725, which isn't bad for a limited edition. The initial Biba range is now in the sale at House of Fraser too.

Hula1

Lancashire-based Graham and Brown seems to be pulling in the big names for its designer wallpaper ranges these days, including Biba legend Barbara Hulanicki, who is offering up this Hula design for the more adventurous amongst you.

Described as her 'signature' style, the design certainly evokes the bold and adventurous days of the Biba brand/store and if you can deal with the dark colours, it will certainly be a talking point in your home.

As you would expect from Graham and Brown, this is 'paste the wall' paper (which is also washable), offered in rolls 52cm wide and 10m long. It sells online for £30 per roll.
