Gorgeous costumes to hire

Whether you have a vintage event coming up, making a film or are putting together a production you have to make time to visit Surrey Arts Wardrobe near Woking.  It is a treasure trove of wonderful clothes and the team really know their stuff about what items to put together to get a complete outfit.  Many of the clothes are originals or beautiful replicas.  I of course love the 40's and 50's dresses but there is something for everyone.
You have to make an appointment which means that you get a one to one session with somebody really knowledgeable.
