Something to wear, something to love.
Christmas brings plenty of reasons to think about what we’re wearing, whether it’s finding something for the party season, refreshing a winter wardrobe or choosing a gift for someone who loves fashion.
Dorking has a varied selection of independent boutiques and clothing retailers, with plenty of choice beyond the usual high street brands.
Explore Martha Russell, Aya Boutique, The Wardrobe, Kathy Kyle Studio and Anni & Arthur’s Yard for clothing, fashion and accessories, as well as national brands Fat Face, M&S and Clarks.
For menswear, there’s Westdaw Menswear, Dapper Formalwear while Victoria’s Bra Shop offers specialist lingerie and personal service. You’ll also find outdoor clothing and accessories at S.C. Fuller, alongside practical winter wear at Mountain Warehouse.
And if you’re looking for a little sparkle, Dorking has plenty to offer. From a special piece of jewellery to give as a Christmas present to the finishing touches for a festive outfit, explore Scott’s Jewellers, Glow Jewellery and Blacks 2, alongside jewellery and accessories at The Wardrobe, Aya Boutique, The Lemon Tree and That Lovely Shop.
Of course, getting ready for Christmas isn’t always about buying something new. Perhaps you’ve found an outfit at the back of your wardrobe that needs a little attention, or a favourite coat that could do with some care before another winter.
Dorking Drycleaners and Knights Drycleaners can help get clothes ready for the celebrations, while Dorking Alterations can assist with adjustments and repairs. And if your favourite boots or party shoes have seen better days, The Boothole offers shoe repairs and reheeling.
It’s a reminder of how useful our local businesses can be, whether we’re shopping for something new or making the most of what we already own.
