Lucky Dry Goods

Best vintage store I’ve been to in America. Not a huge selection but the taste is supreme. The work has been largely done for you picking out the good stuff. Good quality, great cuts and a broad selection of styles across the decades.
PLUS and this is what makes it THE BEST in my opinion, the price is very reasonable. Which means you can get a haul without worrying too much. After all, it’s only vintage. It should be cheaper than buying new.

I had been hunting for a specific scarf for some time & stumbled across the perfect one on the Lucky Vintage Etsy account. However, I wasn’t too keen on the idea of paying $ 50 for a pre-​used scarf I’d never seen/​touched so I reached out to the store owner. She had the scarf shipped to the Ballard location for me within hours for viewing without commitment to purchase. The scarf was beautiful so I did, indeed, purchase… but A+ for customer service!
I was in a bit of a rush so didn’t have much time to browse, but I did see a few nice pieces that seemed reasonably priced. I’ll definitely be back.

I came in here the other week, looking for a 1930s or 1940s dress for a holiday party. It was very last minute shopping, but I had no other time. The gentleman at the front desk couldn’t think of any 30s/​40s party dresses in my size off the top of his head, but he did answer my questions about a few and was quick to help. I actually found about five different options, which is pretty impressive considering that I’m a modern day size 10 and 30s/​40s women were evidently all very tiny. («Makes sense with the Depression,» said the shopkeeper.)
I didn’t find anything but I appreciated the range of choices. This is a well-​curated shop and there is a LOT to look at. The prices seem pretty reasonable.

I can sniff out a vintage store like a pig can sniff out a truffle. And let me tell you baby, this place has got the good goods.
No sooner than I stepped foot inside but hello, I did spy a sweet little cropped Asian jacket, made in Hong Kong with ¾ sleeves. The darling jacket fit me just right and I’ll be damned if it wasn’t priced right too. When the clerk rang up the sale, I found that as I live in Oregon, all I had to do was show my Oregon ID and I didn’t have to pay the sales tax.
I really dig this shop as it’s really carefully curated with awesome items and the fella that was working there at the time was quite personable.

This vintage boutique is one of the best ones I’ve ever walked into. There are so many true vintage pieces here for affordable prices. Many real vintage stores, I feel, are still so out of my price range, which may be valid for what they sell, I have no idea. But Lucky Dry Goods had a bunch of gorgeous dresses that seemed to average ~$ 85, much more attainable than other vintage stores with dresses that average $ 200-​$ 300. Or maybe that’s just LA vintage stores. I browsed through their blouses and jackets and hats and found so many pieces that I loved. I didn’t buy anything this time around but next time I am in need to go shopping, I’ll surely think of this place. For now, it’s a fun place to browse.

gaaaaaaaaasp soawesome
I am seriously looking forward to spending time browsing at Lucky. Dresses! Sweaters! 1940’s breeches. (who knew?) All sorts of vintage-​y goodness in a range of prices, with practically a museum of old and gorgeous pieces hanging on the upper walls.
welcome to Ballard, new favorite place!

I love Lucky Dry Goods! This new vintage boutique is the perfect addition to a rustic neighborhood of brownstones and old buildings in Ballard. The shop is custom from head to toe, from the wood built ins, racks, etc. It truly is more than a boutique, but a fashion museum/​gallery. The best part about this shop is that there’s something for everyone there… men, women, and children. They have an amazing selection of exclusive denim, work wear, flannels, rocker tees, leather jackets, and boots for men. And for the ladies dainty day dresses, embellished cocktail and evening frocks, bags, accessories, and jewelry. I recently bought a 1940s sage rayon dress for $ 36 and a patchwork silk top for $ 18. That’s a steal! While prices vary from the $ 100’s and up, there is a wide selection of other goods under $ 50. A great place to find a special occasion dress, statement piece, and or gift. Friendly staff with a lot of knowledge. Clothing is in top notch shape, clean, repaired, and ready to wear. Love this place and the staff!
