Celtic Collection signs deal with luxury St Davids hotel group
Vintage flair, environmental care, and a celebration of community fashion A NEW sustainable fashion shop in Charles Street is making waves – not just with its carefully curated racks of preloved clothing, but with its mission to give clothes a second life and people a fresh sense of style. Evergreens Outlet, which opened in September 2024 at 88a Charles Street, was founded by a former oil industry professional who made the leap from corporate life to conscious consumerism. 'After 15 years in the oil industry, I wanted to do something more environmentally aware,' the founder Jess Holmes said. 'Working in the recycling sector opened my eyes to just how many good-quality clothes are already out there – and how much we throw away.' From selling a handful of preloved pieces online to running a vibrant high street shop, the journey has been swift – and successful. Evergreens has already diverted around half a tonne of clothing and items from landfill since opening its doors. The shop offers a wide selection of handpicked garments – from designer labels and retro prints to wardrobe staples – with something for almost every taste. The idea is simple: to make stylish, sustainable fashion more affordable and accessible to the local community. But Evergreens is about more than just clothes. 'I want it to be a welcoming space where people can express themselves through fashion,' the founder explained. 'It's about clothing with character, history, and a story.' To celebrate its growth and raise funds for this year's Founder's Day, Evergreens is hosting a special fashion show on Friday, May 24. The theme is Fashion Through the Ages: 1920 Onwards and will include a student-designed outfit, an occasionwear showcase, and even a prize for best dressed. There's no dress code – just a chance to wear something you love. 'What began with selling a few preloved pieces online quickly sparked a deeper passion. 'When I spotted that 88a Charles Street was vacant, I knew instantly: this had to be my shop. The location and charm of the space felt perfect. I'd always dreamed of creating something affordable and accessible for our local community and Evergreens was born from that vision. 'My aim has always been simple: to make stylish, sustainable fashion more accessible. There's something incredibly special about giving a garment a second life – it's better for the planet, kinder on your wallet, and often far more unique than what you'll find in mainstream shops. Evergreens Outlet is a celebration of style that lasts, clothing with character, history, and a story. 'I often hear people say, 'I love this, but I've nowhere to wear it.' Well, now's your chance,' Jess added. Tickets are available in store or via the Facebook event page. To stay updated, follow @evergreensoutlet on Facebook. At Evergreens, it's not just about reviving fashion – it's about building a community where every piece has a past, and every person is part of the journey.
