Temperley Somerset is holding a sample sale at their Ilminster store from March 16-20, where you can try on and buy their vast collections from across several seasons.
We chat to Alice Temperley, founder of the celebrity-worn, Vogue-acclaimed brand, who shares four benefits of shopping at the sample sale:
1) Quality, unique clothing for everyday wear
In an industry dominated by fast-fashion, Temperley Somerset is offering a local-turned-international brand of luxury, high-quality pieces, designed for anyone, for any occasion.
“The sample sale will include a variety of unique and distinctive items that embody Somerset and country living in a fashion-forward way,” Alice says. “You’ll be able to browse ready-to-wear and evening-wear from past seasons at reduced prices.”

“We’ve been recognised by Positive Luxury, who award their Butterfly Mark to brands that are committed to mindful designs – we incorporate eco-friendly materials into our designs to help protect the environment," says Alice.
3) The clothes are loved by celebrities
The world of Temperley offers an abundance of stunning pieces to empower and embolden the modern woman. Their collections are immensely popular and it’s clear to see why with their high-quality fabrics and fashion-forward designs.

4) Enjoy a fun day out
As well as picking up some new outfits at the sample sale, there will be a bar serving cocktails and cider from the family’s cider farm to enjoy while you shop. You and your friends can make a date of it, and enjoy an authentic Temperley Somerset experience.
