We purchase pieces that meet the high quality and style standards that our customers have come to expect.
As you can see from our shop, we focus on early 1900s - 1970s clothing and accessories and designer pieces (from 1960s - modern) in excellent condition. The common thread is that the clothing has a unique, modern appeal (i.e. doesn't look dated or like a costume).
We're also looking for vintage menswear & accessories from the early 1900s - 1960s.
**PLEASE NOTE: due to the extremely high number of inquires we receive about selling vintage, we're going to be dedicating one day a week to responding. Please be patient with us if you don't hear back from us immediately. THANKS!**
