This place is the Holy Grail of vintage as far as I’m concerned. I ALWAYS find something I want when I come here! The owners Sparkle & Cad are very friendly and knowledgeable, and are always happy to help if you’re looking for something special. Everything they sell is hand picked, so you know there aren’t going to be rails of dubious looking stock like you find in so many vintage shops nowadays. If you’re looking for authentic clothing and accessories then it doesn’t get better than this: everything in here is a gem! Happily there’s also something for every budget, as they have a discounted section upstairs. The main floor is pricier — but worth it.

The best vintage shop in London indeed. It is a treasure box in the middle of London-I could move in there! Hats, shoes, dresses, amazing pieces from 1920’s-1970’s, especially their 1940’s/1950’s collections… late 1930’s Garbo hat from Ninotchka, Marilyn dress, the most amazing 1950’s earrings and gloves(and I’ve been collecting these for some years now and they have wonderful choice) all in perfect condition and one off’s! I seriously wish that shop was my cupboard… Sparkle and Cad, the owners of the place are über friendly and all you have to do is ask and they will tell you all about the designers, eras of the items… you’ll really feel million dollars to wear a dress which was worn by a Hollywood starlet of a very famous movie sometime in 1956!!! Marilyn dress is pricey but a wonderful find for a collector. there is something for everyone and you can certainly find a bargain(especially in Hell to Pay upstairs) too(also get your self on their mailing list and see when they have a sale or special deals!).and another thing you’ll never know who you might see in there(Kate Moss, Whoopee Goldberg, Immodesty Blaize, Duffy, Paloma Faith, Eva Green, Sharleen Spiteri, to name just a few!!). I am overexcited about The Girl Can’t Help it, love it! MUST visit!!!
