An email from [email protected]… They are dithering over whether they should order these Repettos for the store. For those who don’t know, Shop At Maison Bertaux (27 Greek Street, Basement Premises, W1) is the shop in London where all the Parisian-cool girls go.

Thoughts? Add them here or email madame directly on the email above…
