Barbara Dee (Market Street)
Barbara D was a ladies boutique on Market Street in Manchester just along and on the same side as Dolcis and Saxone shoe shops. In the late sixties/early seventies they sold fab crochet dresses, tops, skirts and trousers. I've still got my pink, lurex, mini, crochet dress from there in the wardrobe. I often wore it at The Twisted Wheel all nighters in the late 60's.
The Barbara D window was very unusual as it was a red fascia circular window.
I was back in Manchester in the early 90's and the shop front was still there but it was an insurance/finance store. I was back in Manc in early 2000's but it had gone - any pics or memories out there you could post?

You wrote that the shop front is sadly no longer there. However, it's brilliant that you still have something from her shop and we still have the memories. Hope you manage to read this. Deborah
