Recently, Chlo in the West Midlands stopped by our Bilston boutique and absolutely loved what we’re doing — celebrating individuality, confidence, and body-positive style through vintage-inspired design. She might not wear the dresses herself, but she adored the energy, creativity, and community that Kitty Darling brings to the high street.

Floral and polka-dot prints with that timeless charm,
Rockabilly-inspired dresses for bold retro flair &

Popped by the absolutely adorable little shop on a whim and was treated to an absolute delight of an experience. Nothing was too much to ask, the interactions were natural, fun and easy, the owners made it feel like an absolutely tailored experience. Walked out with some absolutely lovely dresses, one of which I wore the same evening and received many compliments throughout the evening. WILL be a repeat customer!
