You can’t beat a good vintage find that’s a blast from the past with a nifty price tag. Vintage clothing is the perfect way to stand out in a crowd, sure, but I think we’d all agree that in recent years it’s getting more and more expensive. £80.00 for a classic pair of Reeboks, £50.00 for an oversized granny knit jumper and £45.00 for a pair of cut Levi shorts…no thanks. But luckily for us Brag Vintage is on hand to fulfill all our old school desires, for a quarter of the price. Score!
Founded in Sheffield in 2011, the brand is one of the fastest growing online vintage clothing stores in the UK. Selling an electric mix of chic antique garments, the label takes pride in selling high quality, unique pieces that have been carefully sourced and authenticated.
From boxy knits, to infamous denim jackets, Brag’s online store is riddled with a retro feel that will take anyone’s fancy. Picture pairs of beloved Levi shorts for a mere £14.99 and bands tees that once belonged to a brash metal head for £9.99. We know, we know, we’re swooning too.
Allured by the charm of outlandish knitwear, the Hit The Floor team are particularly fond of the brand’s range of quirky knits. Case in question: the Vintage Diamond Pattern Jumper. Cue the fashion police, the jumper is just one of the many which is ticking all our boxes this season. Stylish, check. Practical, check. Vintage, check. Need we go on?
Relishing the thought of dressing up in exadurated proportions this AW, knits like this are the perfect way to do it right. The relaxed fit allows the garment to swamp your frame, in a good way. Taking tips from the industry’s finest, thanks Burberry, the design would look great teamed up with a fitted mini skirt or pair of skinny jeans as it allows emphasis on all those flattering assets.
When it comes to practically, we all know knits are the perfect way to stay snug. But what you may not have known is that vintage knits not only cut down your heating bill, yes they really are THAT snug, but also rid you from the tedious task of layering.
