NO. THEY didn’t! Although you would be forgiven if you thought so.<\/p>\n

So how is it that we have new vintage arrivals all the time, every week? It’s because we make two to three major buying trips a year, sourcing our a** off for these vintage goodies! We travel the world, carefully selecting choice vintage pieces using our very, very discerning eyes.<\/p>\n

And when the job is done, we ship it all back to Singapore, where you can enjoy it, touch it, try it, see it with your own eyes.<\/p>\n

All the clothing is one-off, as it’s vintage, unique. They can thus be altered to fit.<\/p>\n

So come down and try on that piece you’re eying before someone else snaps it up first and you never see it again for the rest of your life. -.-<\/p>\n

This album features a friend we used in one of our previous shoots – Linda Lim of White Antler. She was in our “Notes from the Secretariat” photo shoot!<\/p>\n
