Vintage Retail Space Gorgeous Gerties Opens on West Street, Dorking
Dorking, UK – AN EXCITING new retail concept opened with a 1950s flourish in Dorking this weekend.
Gorgeous Gerties is a tearoom and traditional sweet shop, but customers wandering upstairs will discover a gift store stocked by 25 independent traders, with a distinctly vintage flavour.
The idea was dreamed up by friends Debbie Wright and Tracey Allen, who have donned their matching pinnies to welcome their guests and wrap gifts chosen from their broad selection.
“We thought , ‘If we don’t do it now we’re never going to do it’,” said Mrs Wright.
