A fashion professional who returned to Newcastle during lockdown has launched a pop-up shop dedicated to pre-owned and dead stock designer clothing.
Sophie Cabourn, whose father, Nigel Cabourn, is a cult vintage clothing collector and designer, has opened RE:BOURN in the Bottleworks gallery space on Ouseburn's Riverside Walk. The store - which is open until April 11 stocks some of the large collection that Ms Carbourn has amassed during her time working in the fashion industry in London.
The 35-year-old, who has a studio in Gosforth where customers can sift through her collection, moved back to Newcastle along with industry friends when pandemic restrictions hit. And now she is hoping RE:BOURN will ultimately become a bricks and mortar shop, but not before the business has found its feet through a handful of pop-up outings in the city.
