Upper West Side Thrift Shops

New York, as many of us know, is the fashion capital of the world. It’s part of a conglomerate known as the “Big Four”. In case you are unfamiliar with what exactly the Big Four is, allow me to clear the fog from your window pane. The Big Four is a total of four cities that are globally known as fashion capitals. Those cities include Paris, Milan, London, and last but certainly not least: New York.

With Fashion Week on the rise, it’s time to get into the trendy spirit. Vintage pieces have always be in. A lot of times, designers will create pieces to emulate clothing that would today be considered vintage. I know from experience it can be hard to find authentic vintage designer clothing. There is nothing worse than accidentally buying an expensive knockoff…but, lucky for us, there are a few thrift shops that almost exclusively sell authentic vintage designer clothing. Let’s take a quick virtual tour through the Upper West Side, to see what we can find.
