A Vintage Home


As I talked previously that I find more info about place where you can enjoy vintage shopping, here is another interesting story I found from vogue UK.

VINTAGE king William Banks-Blaney has opened his first boutique in Marylebone
WilliamVintage - a veritable Mecca of perfectly preserved, carefully considered collections is a two floor space, available to view by appointment only. A stone's throw from Marylebone High Street, the shop boasts a heavenly host of names from Ossie Clark to Louise Boulanger, Dior to Desses, and Balmain to Balenciaga.

"Women today want a comfortable way of buying," explains Banks-Blaney. "They go to SpaceNK for the highlights of beauty products on offer, Matches or Browns for the contemporary collections and it seemed natural to me to offer the same approach with fine vintage clothing: to select, edit and offer the best available and then advise each client personally."
Sizes range from six to 16 and prices range from £75 to £7500. Dotted with Diptyque candles and with clothes divided in to coloured-coded collections throughout - WilliamVintage offers invaluable styling advice, a totally relaxed environment in which to try everything on and Banks-Blaney's impeccable knowledge to boot.
