1/2 Swinging in bright pink: Marianne is thrilled with a vintage Christmas dress
Marianne de Waal is going to dance this Christmas and of course that includes a festive dress. In the Red Cross thrift store in Breda, Marianne finds exactly what she is looking for: ‘A bit festive, a bit of colour.’
Marianne’s choice is a bright pink, slightly openwork dress in which she can absolutely dance on the dance floor this Christmas. “You can’t afford a party dress in a specialty store,” she says. Marianne also likes the fact that she is also supporting a good cause by shopping in the Red Cross vintage store.
The proceeds from everything sold in the store in Breda go to projects to support women from minority groups.
Thea Fillekes of the Red Cross explains that everyone wants to look nice during the holidays. “Everyone can choose something here,” she says, pointing to the many racks of party clothes in the store Red Cross Shop. A store that looks like a real boutique store.
Customers who find the store on an industrial estate in Breda these days are not only people who do not have a lot of money to spend, but also partygoers who simply do not want to spend that much money on clothes that they may not wear more than once or twice a week. years of wearing.
In any case, Marianne is delighted with her new acquisition. She leaves the store beaming to steal the show at Christmas, swinging in her bright pink outfit.
The proceeds from all vintage clothing sold go to charity, in this case to Heroine of the Red Cross.
