The fabulous Dublin Vintage fair returns to the Royal Marine Hotel in Dun Laoghaire this April 18th, exactly one year after the inaugural fair was held in this very popular venue. Once again Perk Up will be there with plenty of amazing bargains from the 50s to the 80s, including our handmade retro jewellery with prices as low as 5 euros! We’re going to see another great line-up of stalls this year from all over Ireland and the UK selling everything from glam gunas, accessories, décor and surprises galore! Also some fantastic retro themed entertainment will be ongoing throughout the day.

 

Talented stylists Kiera Conlon and Cabrini McArdle will again be on hand giving individual makeovers to anyone looking for that sexy pin-up look, which will come in handy for those attending the ball! Yes, Dublindy are currently planning another vintage dance extravaganza for that Sunday night so the fun and glamour goes on and on!!
