Pocket Watch & Petticoats

Are you ready to be teleported back to a simpler and happy time? Well if you can't the next best thing is to come here and try on some beautiful and comfortable (my wife told me they were comfortable, I have not personally tried them on) dresses that will have your wallet feeling a tad bit lighter. Most of the dresses have pockets as well! Prices are very reasonable for the quality of the dresses or shoes. 4 dressing rooms available. Very friendly and helpful owner/manager.

I have trouble finding clothes that make me feel fabulous in my size. Pocket Watch & Petticoats changed that! Ended up with 6 amazing outfits and a pair of shoes. They are so comfortable to wear and I love how I feel every time I wear one.

This shop caught my eyes the moment I saw it. There are a lot of nice dresses. I didn’t buy one, unfortunately. I would love to visit again next time and purchase one.

Really nice vintage clothing store! They carry some well known brands, but also have their own line of clothing! Was able to score a great dress.The staff is a little pushy unfortunately.

I have a problem to find nice and fitting clothes for myself in my country, everything nice is only in smaller sizes so when I saw this shop in Cambridge I wanted to check. They had even bigger sizes so suddenly I felt like I can wear nice things. I bought two dresses, two petticoats and belts. Never felt this pretty and good in my life. My friend saw the dresses and wanted one for herself so I returned to the shop after few hours. Fifi was very sweet and helpful, made me feel welcomed and that I deserve looking good even though I am plus size. So sad that Brexit happened so it would be harder to get these dresses to EU. I was in Cambridge only for one week and at least 5-7 people on the street and in the hotel told me how they love my dress. Then few other people on the airport told me the same. Thank you for boosting my confidence and that I can finally wear nice things and feel good.

Disappointingly, we travelled over an hour to visit only to find a sign saying they were shut due to feeling unwell. Normally I would sympathise, but as it was a nicely laminated sign, it obviously gets a lot of use. We won't be risking travelling again only to find it shut! If the staff are ill a lot then maybe it would be an idea to have a backup in place, especially on a Saturday, rather than lose the trade and new customers.
