DESIGNER bargains will be on offer at a special event being held at Buckland Abbey near Yelverton later this month.

Fashions with top name labels like Moschino and Armani will be on sale at a fraction of the normal prices ? other bargains on offer will include Italian shoes, handbags, scarves and accessories, plus genuine designer sunglasses at just £29.

Every purchase made at the sale on May 27 supports the work of the National Trust at Buckland Abbey ? most credit cards will be accepted.

To show off the clothes, there will be two fashion shows held in the Great Barn, complete with catwalks. Booking for the shows, which take place at 11.30am and 2.30pm, is essential ? call 01822 853607 to ensure a place.
