The Vintage Academe is a niche website and magazine for lovers of fine vintage clothing and accessories. Vintage clothing can date from the 19th Century to 2000 and include mammoth brands such as Alaia to Worth, Balenciaga to Yves St Laurent, Lanvin to Valentino, Dior to Pucci.
On the website you can view some stunning pieces, all hand selected for their uniqueness. Every item has been professionally cleaned and restored (if required) to its former glory.
The site also boasts The Journal, a rather cool on-line magazine celebrating the glamour, influence and social importance of design and craftsmanship as well as the men and women behind the classic labels.
What’s more, the Vintage Academe will be hosting events at stylish venues on a regular basis to allow clients to view and try on the pieces, preview new ‘finds’ and meet the people involved. Eminent personalities in their own fields will speak on luxurious and enticing topics. The first Academe of 2009 is a private preview of the Collection Yves Saint Laurent et Pierre Bergé in association with Christie’s prior to the auction in Paris.
