‘Every dress has a story.Let me tell you mine...’Dora is in love with a man who barely notices her, has a job she doesn’t care about, and dresses entirely for comfort, not style.

And there she makes a surprising discovery – Mimi’s been writing stories to accompany every dress she sells. Romantic, heartbreaking tales about each one’s secret life before it got to her shop...Dora starts to matchmake these lonely frocks with new owners, but will the stories help her as well? Trading her boring high street clothes for vintage glamour is one thing.
