Creative Show Off manager Sharon Johnstone, who had been with the business for five years, said the store had plenty of outfits lined up for the event, including ones she had made herself. “When people make a booking, we take a deposit which comes off their hire, but a lot have been wanting a refund as they re not going to the festival any more,” she said. “There s just two whole racks full of clothes. It’s quite often the same people every year who come in and hire things – there’s quite a lot.”
