Are you looking for a vintage shop that buys clothes? I buy a large quantity of women's and men's 1800's - 1990's clothing, jewelry, accessories every year.

Hi, my name is Kat. I'm the owner and buyer for the shop. I've been a professional vintage dealer for over a decade now and am quite knowledgeable about antique & vintage textiles.

I work with families looking to sell a collection during sale of a house, estate or storage unit. I regularly work with antique dealers, estate and real estate professionals as well. I prefer to buy an entire collection or estate of clothing at once rather than cherry pick. If you want it to all go away then I'll bring the box truck.

My studio is in Phelps, NY and I'm happy to make an appointment to meet with you if you have items that I'm interested in. I'm also willing to travel throughout Western New York if you have too many items to easily move. I regularly travel to Rochester, Syracuse and Ithaca for house calls.

I specialize in clothing from the 1800's through the 1940's and these are the items that I pay the most for. I also buy items from later decades as well. I've added a guide below of what I am looking to buy.

Please be prepared to send me a few pictures of items that you'd like to sell before we set an appointment time. I aim to be as fair and transparent as possible with the families that I do business with.

What I'm looking for:

I buy a wide range of things from different eras. Only about 1% of my inventory makes it on to my website and isn't a good representation of the variety of things that I buy. I create different collections for different venues and I buy for the costuming and film industry as well.

I buy nearly all sizes.

I do buy garments that need cleaning & stain removal, repairs or that can be repurposed. It depends on the item and the nature of the flaws.

Clothing- All types of women's & men's clothing from the 1800's - 1970's. I buy high quality or designer clothing from the 1980's - early 2000's as well.

Textiles, fabric, lace, quilts, & linens - I may be interested in these items if they are from the 1950's and earlier. I'm looking for items that are very old, interesting and/or handmade. I also buy handkerchiefs, silk scarves & aprons.

Accessories & Jewelry- I buy costume jewelry collections & many types of men's and women's accessories from the 1800's-1970's.

Thank you, I look forward to working with you! -Kat
