You’d be mad to miss Goodone’s Christmas Sample Sale. On Wednesday 2nd December, 3pm till 10pm, you’ll be able to scoop one of Goodone’s amazing upcycled pieces at a bargain sample sale price at their goodone studio.

After the massive success of their last studio sample sale and with christmas around the courner, they thought it a great time for a Xmas sample sale – we couldn’t agree more!

Goodone is offering the same custom made service where you can choose your own combinations as well as offering big discounts on all their Winter designs, including their gorgeous new knitted leggings (as seen on ASOS) and Xmas stockings.

With all these bargains to be had – and a mince pie or two – this is a sample sale not to be missed!

Date:
Wednesday 2nd December: 3pm-10pm

Location:
Goodone,
Studio 1B,
2-4 Southgate Road,
London,
N1 3JJ
