Where do I find Vintage Fashion

Why Vintage Fashion Always Makes a Comeback: The Timeless Appeal of Classic Pieces In today's fast-paced fashion world, where trends quickly fade and cheap fast fashion often ends up in landfills, vintage fashion remains a symbol of timeless style. At Remi, we see classic pieces as essential to any wardrobe. Investing in vintage and vintage-inspired fashion isn't just about appreciating the past—it's about embracing pieces that will last and be core pieces of your wardrobe.

Classic Pieces as Wardrobe Staples One of the joys of vintage fashion is its remarkable ability to transcend time. Classic pieces like a well-tailored trench coat, hats or a beautifully printed scarf. I recently found a vintage pair of pearl costume earrings, they are so stunning but have the old fashioned clips which are so uncomfortable to wear.  I absolutely love them but know with the clip on them I won’t get the use out of them  These earrings are just so gorgeous Ive decided I’m going to invest in getting them altered at a jewellers to remove the clips and add a post.  Little extras like this can just absolutely make an outfit and its just so beautifully unique and timeless

1. Local Vintage Shops and Boutiques  Many cities have vintage shops hidden away in their nooks and crannies. You might be paying more high end prices here

2. Thrift Stores and Charity Shops Thrift stores like Goodwill or Salvation Army, and charity shops, can be gold mines for vintage finds. It often requires a bit of digging, but you can find incredible pieces at fantastic prices. My favourite finds have been made here

3. Online Marketplaces Websites like Etsy, eBay, and Depop are fantastic for vintage clothing and accessories. You can search for specific items, styles, or periods, and buy directly from sellers around the world.

 4. Flea Markets and Antique Fairs and Car boot sales  Flea markets and antique fairs are great for finding a wide array of vintage items to choose from.

 5. Estate Sales   Attending estate sales can lead to discovering rare and high-quality vintage items. These sales are where you can find garments, accessories records, gardening items, furniture the list goes on. They can also be found online via the big Auction houses. 

Each of these venues offers its own experience and type of collection, so try a few to discover which ones best suit your style and vintage needs! I tend to make a day out of it with a few girlfriends and have had a lot of luck at the thrift stores Happy vintage shopping
