Deborah Woolf Vintage

Not long at all now until our summer bonanza arrives this Saturday June 4th! We're really looking forward to having Deborah Woolf Vintage onboard and can't wait to see the nuggets of vintage joy she'll be bringing along with her!

Here's a sneek peek she's given us...

Deborah is the owner of a vintage boutique in North West London, with an emphasis on highly individual vintage fashion and costume from the 1860s to the 1980s. She collects and stocks British Boutique designers of the 60s and 70s and her shop is a destination for stylists, designers, models and buyers from all around the globe, so we're especially pleased to have her as an exclusive part of our summer market.

Summer market...

North London Vintage Market is back two weeks this Saturday on June 4th! Wiyumi in Berlin have just made us another bright coloured dazzler of a flyer here:


We'll be bringing the same range of handpicked treasures and homeware to leafy North London with many of the same excellent vendors from before as well as some exciting new stallholders added into the mix, all selling a real mix of eclectic vintage wonder. 

Over 1000 people packed out our last event after recommendations from Time Out and I-D magazine - get down early to grab those bargain nuggets of vintage gold.  Mid-century beauty, furniture, retro kitchenalia, vintage prints, jewellery & clothing, books, ceramics and curiosities...yes please! See you there on June 4th for another bonanza!

April market frolics...

 Thanks again to all of you who made it down to our super Spring market! It was a fantastic day with a staggering 1100 vintage enthusiasts making their way to leafy Crouch End to survey the gorgeous goods our handpicked stallholders had on offer, leaving many tables bare by the end!
 We were really happy to have the Peanut Vendor onboard (recently recommended by The Guardian)selling some beautiful mid-century homewares

 Vintage fashion stalwart Fola Solanke was also back with some stunningly chic vintage clothing and classic spring dresses dating right back to the 1940's and beyond
 
Vintage ceramics and kitchenware were also in abundance, with the many of the best 1960's and 1970's psychedelic designs being snapped up in the very first hour!

Many thanks to Time Out who named us in their Best New Markets feature, as well as I-D online who recommended us - word about us has been spreading fast meaning we were full to capacity for much of the day! Thanks again to all of you who made it down!

We're not getting excited about out summer market on Saturday June 4th - more info about new stallholders and a snappy new flyer winging it's way from our zuper designers Wiyumi in Berlin shortly, mm yeah!

Just 4 days to go!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Only 4 days now until the Spring installment of North London Vintage Market arrives on Saturday April 2nd!  

We received rave reviews about the friendly atmosphere and quality vintage goods at our first market which was attended by an amazing 800+ people, leading Time Out to recommend us this week on their hotlist of the top ten things to do anywhere in London!

This time round we're excited about new traders selling more clothing, vintage toys and collectables, in addition to welcoming back a good portion of our brilliant handpicked dealers from last time selling a unique selection of one off vintage curiosities, accessories, kitchenalia, books, ephemera and homeware dating from the late 1800's to the 1970's.  

A number of our stallholders are also regulars at the prestigious Spitalfields Antique Market, meaning the diversity and standard of the goods available really is second to none! Come and forage for a retro bargain to look striking in your home, a classic and original addition to your wardrobe or to pick out a stunning Mother's Day present you won't find anywhere else!
