When was the last time you wore a dress? If you get it right, it can be the simplest and easiest outfit and the most striking! We all like easy to wear clothes and the Apanage dresses certainly are easy. Each dress is flattering and versatile – perfect for dressing up with shoes or dressing down with boots! The beautifully cut dresses will not disappoint on style – offering options for day to evening plus a sparkling collection for Christmas Cocktails!

Today is a special day as we are supporting our good friend Tracey and her wonderful boys who have together with Kings St. Albans recorded Mr Blue Sky. The song has been recorded in memory of their father and husband Nigel Collinson who was diagnosed with oesophageal cancer in September 2013, and died 12 weeks later – just two days after his 45th birthday. His youngest son Charlie, seven, came up with the idea of recording the track as it was a family anthem and one of his father’s favourites.

The disc will be on sale for £5, with all proceeds going directly to Cancer Research and we are very privileged to be one of the stockists, where you can come and buy it!
