About Us

"A tightly curated collection of apparel from 1890-1990" says Vogue

​

Our mission at Deep Blue Vintage is to elevate the experience of shopping vintage by assembling collections of apparel of the past that seek to compliment, challenge, and inspire design aesthetic of the future.  We do not have a shortage of clothing in this world - quite the opposite.  Big corporations devoid of ethics overproduce then dump their excess stock into small communities across the globe who are then forced to live in the fithy waste of corporate america.  

​

There is another way.  We do not have all the answers, however we are moved to question the current practices of the apparel industry, and inspired to spark change in the current system. How can we appreciate and enjoy fashion as inspiring art that does not exist at the cost of another human being, community, our earth?  We are moved to take part in breaking the cycle of overconsumption by

​

-building relationships with our clients - We get to know our clients so that we can best advise them on their selections and assure that any additions to their closet are intentional and sustainable 

​

-curating vintage apparel in an intentional way - We do not buy vintage in bulk for resale.  Each piece is purchased with the intention of being a part of a specific collection, which eliminates any need to discard excess unsold apparel at the end of each season

​

-hand delivering items locally when possible 

 

-Utlizing local craftspeople in our communities to restore and repair our vintage pieces 

 

-Incorporate antique ribbons, trimmings, scraps from altered garments into our product packaging
 

​

Deep Blue Vintage is an advocate of the handcrafted garment, forgotten techniques, clothing that sparks a memory, that brings you back to another time and place.  We travel across the country and thoughout Europe in search of vintage and antiques that make our heart skip a beat with hopes of making your hearts sing too.  

​

Some like our pieces enough to use for design inspiration - We have landed on the design boards of Ralph Lauren, Victoria's Secret, Suzie Kondi and more.  Some fashion people like to rent our clothing to add flavor to editorial.  And last but not least, our beloved clients who visit us not only for new treasures but for our friendship and love.  Join the lovefest that is Deep Blue
