Marion and Gordon are some of my oldest and very dearest friends, and I've missed them since they moved to Warburton early this year. I've missed seeing the great things that they do with vintage fabrics (and contemporary fabrics with a classic or vintage feel)... so it was lovely to step into their new shop by the (picturesque end of the) Yarra River.
Marion's original prints have become a part of the range. They compliment the vintage and reproduction prints of Nina Wish clothing (and cushion covers) beautifully.
Nina Wish are planning to sell online in the near future. If you join their mailing list you'll be kept informed and can snaffle up some truly original clothing or furnishings.
In the meantime, if you're ever in the Yarra Valley....Nina Wish are open -
12 noon until 5pm - Friday, Saturday and Sunday
or by appointment, telephone 59669757
20 Dammans Road (cnr Martyr Rd) Warburton
(Tell them Nikki sent you - and that she sends her love).
Today's party sprawled out over the extensive gardens and everyone enjoyed a relaxed afternoon... and probably a bit too much cake (at least I did). The promised rain held off and it was perfect garden-party weather. 
And there was a twirly-whirly girl in a pink dress in most photos taken today. Not sure who brought her.

Haha - looks like the sunscreen and cake covered blob of a dress survived the wash! It was perfect twirling weather today. :)
I'll have to add that to the list of things to do. Looks like a lovely new place they have.
thank you so much for this - i really really miss their clifton hill shop. will have to make the trek out to warburton :)
I've been wondering what happened to Nina Wish. Thanks for the update.
What beautiful fabrics. I love vintage fabric. The twirly girl is probably showing off her lovely new dress!
Sheesh. Give the kid a break. You can't possibly expect her to non-twirl in a get-up like that?!?
PS. I'm looking out for her since we both got into the button making malarkey...
Looks like you had a great time!
and the place is beautiful!
Ha! I wondered where she was too...I went to school with Marion!! can't wait to see the new place!
I live only 10 mins from Warburton but have not been there for what seems a long time...Nina Wish looks really lovely, I'm going to wander up soon! Chele x
