If you have heard of British designer Wayne Hemingway MBE you will
probably know he is viewed a little like the Godfather of vintage in the UK and set up his fashion label Red or Dead in London in 1982 with his wife
Geraldine.
A custard tart or butter pie might be more his cup of tea
than a bowl of Italian spaghetti and meatballs as he was born in the small seaside town of
Morecambe, famous for its sunsets and art deco hotel, which luckily for me is
just up the road.
Whether you have heard of Mr Hemingway’s label Red or Dead
or not, you might be interested to know he will be hosting one of his famous yearly vintage bashes not in London, but in Morecambe to celebrate the Midland
Hotels eightieth birthday this year.
I’m going to be hopping on a fast
train to Morecambe tomorrow (Saturday14th September) to sample a pick and mix
of the best vintage has to offer at the Vintage by the Sea one day festival.
