Northern Quarter, MANCHESTER, Easter 2011

I like the layered bodice detail on the orange design.


I sincerely hope that 'Shell Suits' DO NOT come back into fashion!
 The first two photos from my trip back 'home'.  The Northern Quarter is a hub of creativity and little independent shops.  Many new ideas start out here - the 70's trend was first apparent at least 5 years ago.  Shame about the cracked window of Oxfam Originals, which sells second hand designer clothing.
