The bulk of the rail. High-street to designer, all secondhand.
Come and rummage.

The brief
There’s no online shop and nothing to check out. The site has one job: make people want to pop in and have a rummage.
What I did
- Paper, ink and dusty rose, with Fraunces and Inter Tight
- Hand-drawn curtains that swish open as the page loads
- A tilted photo collage and a banner of words that scrolls past
- A scrapbook gallery of taped-up photos
- Written by hand in plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript

The details.
True vintage
Proper old pieces. 70s knits, 80s leathers, the occasional 90s denim moment.
Coats & outerwear
The thing the British weather demands. Sheepskin, wool, the odd showstopper.
04 / Questions
Obvious questions, answered.
Do you take pieces in?
Sometimes. DM @beetleeyesclothing a few photos and Corrine will say if it suits the rail.
Do you do refunds?
Exchange or store credit within 7 days, with the tag still on. Sale pieces are final.
Can I reserve something I saw on Instagram?
Yes. DM @beetleeyesclothing and it’s held for 24 hours.
Is there parking?
Little Lane Car Park is nearest, about a four-minute walk up to Market Place via Loughborough Road.
Are you dog-friendly?
Always. There’s water by the door and biscuits behind the counter.

Newfaces through the door
The curtains opening gets a reaction every time I show someone. It feels just like walking into the shop, and people come in having already had a good nose through the photos online.

Rails worth rummaging.
Fraunces is set big and tight, with one light italic word in rose. Inter Tight looks after the small print.
