Pricing Vintage:
This is a question as a vintage seller that I get asked a lot.
I like to be transparent and hope this helps my lovely customers to understand the pricing so here we go...
Finding vintage is getting increasingly harder. Hours and hours are dedicated to scouring the best vintage and takes an incredible amount of time. This is where most of the hours are spent but its also the best part of the job. Finding those precious vintage gems.
I am not only a vintage seller but a garment restorer and a textile preserver. I collect historical pieces and getting these pieces into tip top condition takes time and patience. I also have many other costs that factor in:
Sourcing vintage
Repairs
Shoots/Photography
Socials
