The Gown Shop on Regent Street
By Meredith Kennon
The war is over at last, and London is alive and vibrant, but a city of rubble and deprivation. One woman, Priscilla Armstrong, determines to pursue her dream of opening a gown shop in the wartorn city, offering exquisite designs of her own making, salvaged from materials of previous generation's castoffs.The shop becomes a place of beauty and creativity,  where ladies of all walks of life find brief respite from the hardships and trauma of the past seven years. Within its walls, a handful of residents seeks what all of England craves, a return to normalcy, and the fulfillment of hopes and dreams, once so seemingly out of reach. Amidst rationing, crime, and a terrible housing shortage, something of beauty peeks out from the rubble and speaks to the wounded hearts of the women who so bravely endured it all.
