Vivian Chan Shaw has just celebrated her 80th birthday. After a lifetime of creating gorgeous handmade knitwear Vivian thinks that it’s now time to pull back a little. She started the label 42 years ago and we have decided after 28 years in the QVB that we will not renew our lease there.
While you’ll no longer be greeted by our smiling faces, you can still shop with us online where you’ll be able to buy a selection of Vivian Chan Shaw knitwear plus the full range of jewellery.
It’s exciting! We’re just putting the finishing touches on our online boutique, which will carry a range of knits and jewels which you can purchase and pop in your “shopping cart”. However, our made to order service will no longer be offered.
So if you’ve been thinking about that special outfit you saw last week, or need that exquisite necklace, hurry in to our QVB store and take home a Vivian Chan Shaw design before we close the doors.
Our last day of trade in the QVB will be Saturday 15 November 2014.
But our journey continues online………
Watch this space! The online boutique is on the way!
See you soon!
