Part of the reason that I love vintage and antique items is the fact that they are often unique and help you stand out of the crowd. This summer The Antique and Vintage Wardrobe has scoured the country for pieces that are that little bit special. From our ever favourite capes to feather fans, leather jackets and exquisite bags, our new A/W 2019 collection is truly eclectic. The brief on our buying trip was to be different and we have certainly succeeded! Our collection will be previewing just before London Fashion Week at The Clerkenwell Vintage Fashion Fair. This fabulous fair is held in The Freemason's Hall, Covent Garden, London on Sunday 8th September. Please see our events page for further details. We look forward to seeing you there!

As summer comes to a close, The Antique and Vintage Wardrobe is busily curating stock for the first fair of the season. The Clerkenwell Vintage Fashion Fair opens its doors on Sunday 9th September at 11.00am and is not to be missed. With 50+ of the very best vintage dealers in the country, it is the perfect place to find those unique items that will make you stand out from the crowd this winter. If you find an item you love but it doesn't quite fit, fear not, as the extremely talented Jonathan Loe from Faustus London will be on hand to alter items so that they fit to perfection.

The Clerkenwell Vintage Fashion Fair is conveniently located in the Freemasons Hall, 60 Great Queen Street, just a quick walk from Covent Garden or Holborn tube stations.  There is also free parking in the surrounding streets.
