Besides the fringe shows and book festival events I found a wonderful distraction in White Stuff on George Street, Edinburgh. When I went to try on a jumper I found an amazing passage of wardrobes with each door leading into a changing room uniquely decorated.
There was the Havisham room with a discarded wedding dress hanging from a peg.
Behind another wardrobe door was a potting shed complete with equipment.
This is my favourite, a 1950s kitchen.
The changing room entered through the yellow wardrobe door was the last one I visited.
I had to laugh when I saw what was inside.
Following me into the changing room, the assistant warned me that the toilet was not plumbed in. I wonder if they’ve had accidents in the past!
In case you’re wondering, I did buy the jumper.
How amazing!
It certainly was!
What a find – I bet they have had accidents!!! Don’t you get around.
Off to Vienna soon!
Wonderful place – I’ve just linked your page to Jennifer so she can visit this on her next trip to Edinburgh.
She’ll love it there!
I went there a few years ago – the wardrobes made shopping a really fun experience – I bought a skirt and a top…
I totally agree!
