Vintage pieces in a contemporary store.
I enjoy (viewing) one of the more recent trends, especially in higher end neigborhoods, of selling contemporary (and some vintage) clothing, and decorating the store with a vintage decor. It’s usually over priced denim and T’s and sweathirts, staged to give you that old vintage feel. Don’t get me wrong, there is not much better than an incredibly soft cotton short or denim, but I mostly enjoy just browsing the stores...and talking pictures!
Came across a beautiful store today - didn’t buy anythng, but if was chock full of items on the wall and hanging, accompanying the new stuff they were selling. I spent 20mins looking at the walls and taking some pics. The owner didn’t seem to mind, I think she appreciated my interest despite the lack of a sale. What caught my eye, from the street, was a red pin striped 1919 jacket, which I immediately recognized, along with some other Princeton reunion jackets.
Anyone else appreciate these contemporary stores and have any pics to share?
