A TARPORLEY fashion store has been named as one of the top shops in the UK by Vogue magazine.

Bottega, which has a stylish selection of homeware, gifts and accessories and a vibrant mix of womenswear from top designers, has been highlighted as part of the magazine’s 100 Best Shops list.

Sam Brightmore, founder and owner of Bottegam, said: “I am so proud of what we’ve achieved and I’m so lucky to have such an incredibly hard working and dedicated team.

“It doesn’t get much better than an accolade from what is possibly the most respected magazine in the world.”

Donna Ida, a personal fan of Bottega, who herself has four boutiques in London including Chelsea, Belgravia, Westfield and Guildford, had a huge input into Bottega achieving the honour after visiting the boutique store and The Birdcage Cafe in Easter.

The 100 Best Shops list also covered delis, floral stylists, chocolate shops, interiors and farm shops across the country, making Bottega’s place among the leading boutiques an even greater accolade.
