There are bags of designer goods up for grabs in a charity shop.
Byres Road is home to the first Boutique by Shelter Scotland charity shop with items including a Chloe “Edith” handbag which retails new at £1,000, and a Liberty of London silk scarf designed by Red or Dead founder Wayne Hemmingway.
The shop also has a mint condition Aldo Conti jacket and a three piece Yves Saint Laurent suit.
Also on the rails for ladies are a number of vintage items, including a Weatherwear Glasgow LTD rain coat and a stunning Emporio Armani evening dress.

Adam Lang, of Shelter Scotland, said: “People’s generosity in donating and buying from our charity shops allows us to be there to ensure no-one has to face bad housing or homelessness alone. This is an exciting new development which we hope brings another way for people to support our work.
“We helped more than half a million people in Scotland last year with practical advice for those in housing need.”
