The Occasion Edit Wedding and festive season dressing, Ilford Lane
Rangreza London is a clothing and jewellery shop in Ilford. Embroidered outfits fill the window; inside are necklace sets, statement earrings and stone-set bangles to wear with them.
Open every day, 11:00 to 19:00. Wheelchair-accessible entrance.
Set out the way you might dress for the day: the outfit first, then the set to go with it, then the bangles.
Start at the window. Embroidered outfits in golds and yellows stand on the mannequins at the front of the shop, and the rest of the clothing is waiting inside.
Come and see the embroidery up close, feel the fabric and try a piece on before the day itself.
Necklace sets come with matching earrings, and some with a forehead piece too. There are pearl-strand sets, and large drop earrings finished with beads in red, mint, pink or multicolour.
Because one design comes in several bead colours, you can match the set to your outfit rather than the other way round.
Gold-tone bangles with floral openwork, set with square red stones and round green ones. Wear them as a pair or add them to a necklace set from the same counter.
Clothing and jewellery share one shop, so you can hold the earrings up against the embroidery before you decide. No second trip, and no guessing colours from a photo.
Sets and drop earrings come in red, mint, pink and multicolour beads.
Monday to Sunday, 11:00 to 19:00, weekends included.
The entrance is wheelchair accessible.
Everything in this edit is at the shop on Ilford Lane. Call ahead if you want to ask about a piece, or just walk in.
