THE HUNT

The secondhand vintage love/addiction. A devotion to fashion and textiles that stand the test of time and simply get better with age. Loving vintage can absorb your whole life with so many collectable aspects, home wares, vehicles, textiles, vinyl and many more. With fashion it’s a personal style, that one or more particular era that grabs you and your creative juices by the throat and doesn’t let go. Usually it goes hand in hand and more often than not starts with the music that provoked this style and is synonymous with its culture. However we embark on this journey, its individual and sets us apart from the mainstream fashion industry.

The holy grail of this unwavering love is vintage fairs, flea markets Carboot’s etc etc. They feed a passion and a devotion to finding that one piece that will make your day/month/year! Vintage is not just clothing it’s history, it’s art, and for many of us it’s memories.

It is also above all a treasure hunt. You don’t get that same thrill of shopping on the high street, with each season. With advertising and mass production you pretty much know what you are going to find and the seasons style that governs the outcome. You NEVER know what you are going to find at a flea market and that’s is the real excitement. Whether you do this personally for yourself or to make a living from we all share that incredible united passion for well made, beautifully designed second hand bliss.
