Vintage Shoppen - was ist das denn?
Vintage Shoppen - was ist das denn?

Kein Magazin, keine Zeitung, selten ein Modeblog auf dem nicht sooner oder später das Zauberwort vom "Vintage" Stil fällt. But what is that actually and wasn't there something about "second hand"? You can probably argue about the definition, but second hand, that means used or already worn clothes are. Probably the V-word just sounds more modern, hipper. Which I also associate with prettier clothes. But that doesn't have to be the case.

But not only style, but also wallet and conscience can be spared with <link http: www.oxfam.de shops frankfurt-sachsenhausen-fashion _blank>Vintage shopping. After all, I'm more of a practical sort, and the idea of buying something fresh in top condition that another woman just doesn't like anymore appeals to me. How many things does everyone have in their wardrobe that are either never worn or barely worn? It's good if you can find a new owner for it.

But most of all it's the individual touch that vintage gives to an outfit: where else should it come from, if x-others wear the fancy coat from the fashion chain like I do? Ruffles are back in fashion now - in one of my favourite second hand shops, the <link http: www.secondhand-aschenputtel.de index.php _blank>Aschenputtel, I found a ruffled blouse made of satin by Boss about 1,5 years ago - a real unique piece by now - and that's vintage then. The <link http: www.secondhand-aschenputtel.de index.php _blank>Aschenputtel offers current fashion, many designer labels, whereby the owner carefully selects as I once witnessed during a shopping tour. There is the smaller store. Opposite is the newer, larger one, both just behind the Kleinmarkthalle in the city centre. In the vintage shop, colourful fur vests were already hanging on the rack when there was no talk of them in magazines. With vintage, new trends are created in the best sense of the word - on the street, via street style.
