Thanks to Wills Company Plymouth for sponsoring the launch of Re:store. Many people attended the launch of the new shop last month. This new Retro vibe store on Union Street Plymouth offers its buyers a touch of nostalgia and meeting all modern fashions sells the most amazing retro clothes. The launch event which was sponsored by Wills Company was a huge success thanks to all who attended and to all who donate clothes for us to sell.
