READ NOWThe stylist said the Emporium was her favourite section of the Bindaring sale because of the unique vintage clothing and accessories.
“There’s vintage belts and jewellery that just make my outfit complete or I can use them in photo shoots as well to give them a different edge,” Mrs Behrendorff said.
Red Cross Bindaring Unit vice-president Caroline Arundell said she expected a similar amount of donations to last year – 9.5 tonnes.
