Vintage in Vienna

Vintage in Vienna

Known for its history and the wonderful buildings, Vienna is not only a city of old buildings, traditions and memories, it is also a place where you can find many things from times past. Collectors will often strike lucky here – whether in terms of furniture, accessories, cars, or fashion – in Vienna you can find almost everything in antiques and also all that the vintage heart desires. Whether it’s an old Barcelona chair, a desk from the 70’s, a petticoat dress from the 50s or a vintage Chanel bag, with the necessary Muse you can find what you are looking for. In addition to the flea markets – especially the Flea Market at Naschmarkt- which we will write a report about as soon as it gets warmer – there are numerous shops in Vienna where you can find wonderful old classics, dusty modern and even retro stuff. This time we have sought out and visited some shops and we want to introduce them here, because perhaps one or other of you would like to take a little piece of something old away with you from Vienna. One should however be careful that, in German, vintage also refers to things which have been “made to look old” and not, like in English, things which actually are old. We have focused on those shops which really sell old things – things that remind you of a different time – in terms of clothing and furniture. .

In addition to the many shops – naturally we haven’t been able to cover all of them here -Fräulein Kleidsam arranges the Vintage Salon Vienna. In this market, which takes place in September, expect a wide variety of vintage labels from the fields of fashion, art, design, furniture and home accessories. A real experience! The evening social program gives the flair of a shopping experience from past times. This year it will take place at the Semperdepot – a wonderful setting.

Those who are now wondering what Vienna used to look like, can also strike it lucky, at least in bookshops or on Facebook. “Vintage Vienna” is the name of the Page that collects contemporary documents of many Viennese that show the transformation of a city which has not only changed, but has also experienced positive development – a journey through time showing how the Viennese dressed or how the Kärntner Straße looked when cars were allowed to drive there. Stories from another time…
