The Pursuit of Love

Spot the boxes in this trailer of the brilliant BBC TV series The Pursuit of Love! Featuring the gorgeous Lily James (who has come across our boxes before when she played “Rose” in Downton Abbey) and her life, loves and adventures with her cousin Fanny. This is a hugely entertaining adaptation, by Emily Mortimer, of Nancy Mitford’s bestseller about the madcap Radlett family, (based partly on her own life in the Mitford family) will rival any Netflix series! The attention to detail, the depiction of the times, the pace and enthusiasm in every scene makes this a must to watch. The Empty Box Company were delighted to see our Hat Boxes and Travel Box in a scene in a hotel in Paris, when Linda (Lily James) has been shopping, only to find her relatives have come to “rescue” her, when she is actually blissfuly happy in love, in Paris. It is especially exciting as the boxes were covered in our “Parisienne Stripe” design in Pink, and in Lilac!

So how many boxes did you see?! Watch the full series on BBC i player with particular attention to Episode 3 for our Empty Box fans!

I had three Bespoke Hat Boxes made for me all those years ago (1993) in my left over French wall paper I had in my London bathroom. It was a very grand bathroom. I've moved since, always with these boxes. To the Cotswolds, to Saint Remy de Provence, and now to Naples, Florida. They are going to be someone's long after I am gone. Much adored, thank you! My boxes are beautiful, I'm so glad I found you all those years ago. I just discovered too your splendid YouTube channel. Thank you for opening new doors!

Very rarely in this busy world we lead do I feel strongly enough to put “pen to paper” however having taken delivery of my wedding dress travel box this morning I feel compelled to write to you! I must admit that initially, I hesitated about placing an order for what seemed effectively like just an empty box. Well, I stand corrected! The box is absolutely stunning and of amazing quality – I simply had to express my thanks for supplying such a beautiful product. Rest assured it will be displayed with pride on top of my wardrobe.
Wow! What a beautiful box for my wedding dress. It was so sad to pack my dress away, but your box was just perfect. My Mum thought I was ordering just an ordinary plain box! No way! Thank you so much.
