Shirley Bredal designs and makes beautiful hand-knitted and cotton embroidered childrenswear, currently sold across Scandinavia. She works with many women's knitting groups around Kathmandu to produce her designs, and has a similar ethical policy to mine at AURA QUE.
After much work and preparation, Shirley's first boutique has now opened in Kathmandu, selling all her children's clothes and accessories locally. The store, though small, looks absolutely beautiful, Shirley has such an eye for interiors and for detail....
In the corner of the store, there are AURA QUE leather bags on display as well as NAZ jewellery by Russian designer Masha Navarova. I am really pleased to have our AURA QUE bags displayed there, its a great boutique to be part of, and hopefully we can see what interest there might be in the market locally! It is worth a try!
The opening on Saturday went really well, with many people, both nepalese and ex-pats, turning up to check out the store and join the garden tea party, munching the fab mini cookies, doughnuts and cupcakes that Shirley had prepared - thanks to everyone who showed up! The store is now open!!
