Party time!
Having a fancy dress party? You need to go to Bermans & Nathans, the theatrical costumiers in Shaftsbury Avenue. I could tell you the story about how - when I hired a 17th Century pirates costume - I tried to argue my way into Claridges where the doormen are in 17th century livery but they wouldn't le me in - but that's a longer story.

I know the place you are talking about - but the photo isn't showing up...
nope - it's not working for me either.
PS Happy Christmas!
Perhaps the building has some special camoflaging, to stop it being photographed by terrorists. After all, where better for a terrorist to go & steal police uniforms, Arab disdash's and the like.
Can't you see the picture? It's of Ham, dressed in his new costume - the Invisible Man!
Sorry abouut that folks - I am posting from the top of a mountain right now, that is my excuse and I am sticking to it!
Sum-mit say they couldn't see you, Ham, but i saw the Emperor with his new clothes just fine.
This is a lovely photo, adore the blue and that dress on the right is superb. Forget fancy dress, it's a party frock!
Great party frocks! Lovely shades of blue. Happy Holidays to you!
Have a very festive Christmas! Joyesux Noel and buona festa to you and your family, from me and mine here in rainy (but fine forecast for Christmas Day) Sydney. Has the fog lifted?

I love that shop! I always love walking past it to look at what they have. I remember walking passed with a friend saying, "When I grow up, I wanna be a showgirl." It's a great one!
