WIN WIN WIN
With each issue of Selvedge we offer the opportunity to win a prize, the Ageless Issue has been available for a month and with this issue we have some wonderful gifts.
We have five pairs of tickets, worth £20, to give away to Fashion on the Ration
The latest exhibition at the Imperial War Museum, guides us through what it was like to dress during rationing and explores how individuals maintained their sense of style – and sense of self. The show demonstrates that, although times were hard, limited resources did not necessarily limit innovation or creativity.
Fashion on the Ration, 5 Mar-31 Aug, daily 10-6 Imperial War Museum, Lambeth Road, London, SE1 6HZ
We have 3 hand screen printed linen scarves by Fra Josephine
Inspired by 17th Century designs, Fra Josephine's words can’t really convey how lovely the textiles truly are. Made with only natural dyes and materials you can read more about them on page 60 of the current issue.
Over the last twenty years Volga Linen has evolved into a company recognised for their carefully considered collection of linen items for the home and coherent range of fabric by the metre. Linen’s rare qualities, its soft but hard wearing texture, mean that despite traditional roots it has an enduring appeal that complements the most modern home. To celebrate the company’s 20th Anniversary, Volga Linen is offering two Selvedge subscribers a set of beautiful linen bathroom linens including bath towels, hand towels and a unisex dressing gown – enough to make your bathroom at home feel like a five star hotel.
