WHAT MAKES TOTALLY UNIQUE DRESS AGENCY UNIQUE?

Well, just that, it’s unique!! Every purchase will help Rainbows provide vital care.

The heart of this event is that the seller gets 50% of the achieved sale price & Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People receive 50% - less the smallest amount for unavoidable event expenses.

We strive really hard to ensure that any expenses are indeed just the smallest amount possible so you can be assured every purchase will help Rainbows provide vital care across the 5 counties of the East Midlands.

On just 4 days in August the pop-up agency is set to provide a distinctive approach to shopping for your new favourite outfit

Offering a diverse range of items, including high-end and designer labels, our focus is on that “something special” to reflect your style. The rails are full of one-off pieces & distinctive finds whether you are after a wedding outfit, great pieces to pack for a holiday or something gorgeous “just because”. Be ready to browse.

WHY IS THE EVENT BY INVITATION?

The venue is a private home therefore it isn’t practical or advisable to advertise the address publicly.

We’ve decided to keep this event exclusive ensuring a relaxed, enjoyable boutique shopping experience where guests can browse & try on clothes comfortably.

Of course feel free to extend your invitation to family & friends who also love great fashion & want to support a wonderful charity. Please spread the word, you will be helping us a great deal & we’d be very grateful if you could. Remember, every purchase will help Rainbows provide vital care. MANY THANKS x

GOT CLOTHES TO SELL? LET’S TALK!

Suspect we all recognise the scenario of buying a beautiful outfit for a wedding, special birthday, holiday perhaps. You loved wearing it, felt incredible in it, have fabulous photos but you know you’ll never wear it again.

You can’t bring yourself to just give it away so it goes into the wardrobe making you feel a tad guilty. Sound familiar?

Interested in selling good quality items in great condition? Very happy to chat options with you. We’re currently considering stock but capacity is limited. Please be sure to get in contact ASAP 01530 224579 or info@totally-unique.co.uk Cut off is August 15th, subject to change.

HANDBAG AMNESTY:

Not familiar with Rainbows Handbag Amnesty? Then you may not know the idea was “born” here in Osgathorpe!

All bags have been donated. Many are brand new, some High Street, others well-loved names such as Radley, Kipling & a smattering of high-end designer. An ever-changing stock from ‘Primani’ to Nicole Farhi & Ally Capellino along with an occasional Osprey or Mulberry.

Current stock ranges from £3 - £450. Bags are sold at various events with the full 100% of what someone pays going directly to Rainbows. It’s raised over £16,000 to date.
