Cath Kidston understands that functional items need not be dull, and we are inclined to agree. This cute and handy passport holder keeps your most important document clean and safe from wear and tear. Cath Kidston Ltd was founded in 1993 when she opened a tiny shop in London’s Holland Park. She began by selling the vintage fabrics, wallpapers and brightly-painted junk furniture she remembered fondly from her childhood. Her clever, witty re-working of traditional English country house style meant that her shop soon became a cult success. Gradually Cath began to design her own prints and products. Today the brand is synonymous with quirky prints and patterns, for everything from clothing and accessories to mobile phone cases and crockery.
