A Worcester drag star will be performing at a one-off vintage night in the city.
Ginny Lemon is teaming up with former vintage shop Second Hand Rose for a special, free event at Arch 27.
The night itself, taking place on Saturday, November 4, starts at 4pm and takes the form of a vintage and flea market-style shopping event, featuring an exclusive performance by the Drag Race star.
Clare Bridge, who owned Second Hand Rose in the Hopmarket, and Ginny Lemon began their friendship in Clare’s city centre boutique almost 20 years ago, even appearing on the BBC programme Trash to Cash together in 2009.
The pair are coming back together for this one-off vintage extravaganza.
“It will be great to be back in Worcester again where I started my business,” said Ms Bridge, now based in Wakefield, who is also known for organising the successful WAVE vintage and craft fairs in the city in the 2010s.
For this nostalgic celebration of all things vintage and reused, Clare and Ginny have raided their closets and collections to have the ultimate clear-out that vintage and eco-fashion lovers won’t want to miss.
The duo will be joined by other stallholders selling vintage and designer secondhand items, including popular entrepreneur ‘Tallula Vintage’ who creates new clothing from deadstock and vintage fabrics and is loved by celebrities including Dawn O’Porter.
The event runs from 4pm until 9pm and is free entry. Arch 27, Croft Road WR1 3BD.

Ginny Lemon, who rose to fame on Ru Paul’s Drag Race UK, appeared in an advert for Strongbow in the summer.
The advert, filmed in Fort Royal Park, showed the city accent and Worcester Cathedral in the background.
During the scenes, Ginny can be seen walking and skipping through the park in various costumes.
