Dress with crochet collar & cuffs
Hadny 5 designer, Isabel Haworth, had many clients from Wellington and the lower part of the North Island so she opened a boutique in Willis Street in Wellington in 1966. Model Lyn Farry was one of her Wellington customers. "Her fashions were so 'me' that I acquired probably more than I could afford at the time but I just couldn’t resist." Lyn later modelled for Hadny 5 at an off-site show. This photo of Lyn wearing a Hadny 5 dress was taken at The White Heron hotel in Wellington the day she won the Wellington section of the Wool Alive competition.
