Petals Boutique is a refreshing option in Womenswear and Accessories in East Dulwich.

Opened just over a month ago, the shop offers unique ranges from over 15 designers, all based in London! Eucalyptus, for example, is based in Camberwell Green and is a huge hit among customers. The local ladies say they relate to the range instantly because its clothes are pretty and easy to wear.

Many items on sale now, so it is worth visiting!!!!

I have had to "edit and cut what people say" about 3 times before this, and out of the thousands of posts that are on here that's not many and believe me it really isn't the preferred course of action. When an unregistered user posts comments that are just against the system as a whole and are not really related to the fact that a local shop has opened, it's frowned upon. I shall re-instate the messages just so people can see what you guys are on about and if you want to continue this discussion please do so on another thread. (I think it was mentioning EDKiwi that made me go weak and give in)

Good luck with your new business, I'm sure it'll do well.

Wasn't trying to start trouble Mr Administrator, just worries me when freedom of speech becomes curtailed (even if it is a bit off topic). Not suggesting that you're the thought police or anything ;-)

"I wish it was a falafel restaurant"


It would be a step in the right dirction indeed.


I do however fear that this emporium may not do as well as expected- the melbourne grove area does seem to a a graveyard for new businesses that do not offer anything exceptional or out of the ordinary. Still, We shall see

HA, I don't go off topic do I? By the way has anyone seen my dog? Mark I'm glad my rep has helped re-instate freedom of speech on this forum. I'm all for freedom of speech, and going off topic, so long as:


1) only registered members are allowed to go off topic, not one hit wonders afraid to show themselves, like Snorky.

2) everyone agrees with ME!

3) actually scratch #2 as if everyone agreed with me I'd have no one to disagree with and people wouldn't get annoyed with me.


In the interests of not going off topic - GOOD LUCK PETALS!

yet again we welcome a more money than sense so called boutique shop for the new comers to ED. The rest of us scum who have lived here all our lives will have to walk past on our way to iceland and hope we dont become isolated in this community.. why cant we have some sensible clothes shops with bargains in the area? This place is being ruined and i cant wait to move out.. its not the ED i knew and loved..
Get off the fence mate! ;-) I know what you're saying, but you can't blame the shop owners, when they've got people willing to spend the money. I know the owner of one such shop in the area (I won't say which) and she actually said to me that her client group were a bunch of very bored women with so much money they could afford to spend stupid amounts on a cushion!

Blimey 'danniele', to call yourself "scum" and to get feelings of isolation from the community by merely walking past this shop is terrible, I do hope your head doctor manages to rid you of these issues at your next session. Noone is isolating you, you're isolating yourself by thinking like that. There's some good bargain clothes shops in Peckham and good old TKMAXX is a short trip away on the 37 in Clapham Junction.


Anyway, back onto the topic I went into Petals today and it's really nice, I also discovered a couple of business I hadn't noticed before on Melboune Grove including an interesting looking cafe.

I love TKMaxx - I've banned myself from going there!


And that does seem a tad harsh Danielle - opening up a cr**khouse would certainly ruin an area, but surely not opening up a womens boutique. And remember, Petals was just a junk storage space before, it's not like a well loved local butchers has closed down.


Things move on and local flavour changes; I wish Walsh Glazing hadn't gone, and two mad old shops near the policestation on Lordship Lane are going/gone which makes me sad, but Petals probably doesn't deserve that swipe - good luck to them btw.

Unfortunately the ED we use to know is now being changed by these new "immigrants" who have more money than sense . Perhaps we should count ourselves lucky that we kept these hordes away for so long . Sydenham is a nice area where property prices are reasonable , relatively speaking. Lets live ED to the snobs with funky ideas.

    • The solicitor is also the Executor. Big mistake, but my Aunt was very old, and this was the Covid years and shortly after so impossible to intervene and get a couple of close relatives to do this.  She had no children so this is the nephews and nieces. He is a single practitioner, and most at his age would have long since retired - there is a question over his competence Two letters have already gone essentially complaining - batted off and 'amusingly' one put the blame on us. There are five on our side, all speaking to each other, and ideally would work as a single point of contact.  But he has said that this is not allowed - we've all given approval to act on each others behalf. There are five on her late husband's side, who have not engaged with us despite the suggestion to work as a team, There is one other, who get's the lion's share, the typicical 'friend', but we are long since challenging the will. I would like to put another complaint together that he has not used modern collective communication (I expect that he is incapable) which had seriously delayed the execution of the will.   I know many in their 80s very adept with smart phones so that is not an ageist comment. The house has deteriorated very badly, with cold, damp and a serious leak.  PM me if you want to see the dreadful condition that it is now in. I would also question why if the five of us are happy to work together why all of us need to confirm in writing.             The house was lived in until Feb 23, and has been allowed to get like this.
    • Isn’t a five yearly electricity safety certificate one of the things the landlord must give for a legal tenancy?
    • Very sorry to hear this, but surely the landlord is responsible for fixing the electrics?  Surely they must be insured for things like this? I hope you get it all sorted out quickly.
    • The Pie House Co-op Deptford Emergency Crisis - Needs YOUR Help. This not-for-profit, worker-run, wheelchair accessible music and arts venue at 213-214 Edward Place SE8 5HD THE CRISIS: From Liv, Grace & Sonia, On Friday 31st October, there was a flash flood in Deptford, and we found ourselves with water pouring in through the lighting fixtures, damaging our electrics and sound system.

We are asking all our allies for support as we try and reignite the crowdfunder to reflect the new expensive work that needs to take place, and the gear we need to replace. Thank you in advance for your support so far, and your support going forward. If you have any ideas with getting media attention, or fundraising - please get in touch on [email protected] Even if you like myself have not previously visited this venue, supporting small not for profit venues are vital to the life blood of what 'commmunity' is all about.
