Pearl-embroidered Art Nouveau and Charleston dresses can be found at Vintage Flo, as can designer fashion from the 1980s. The shop in the trendy Freihausviertel has developed into a real place of pilgrimage for nostalgic fashion-lovers. This is provided by about 5,000 items of clothing - of top quality and originality. A fact that also makes Vintage Flo a sought-after supplier for theatre plays, films and TV productions. Even international top designers get their inspiration here - from Stella Mc Cartney to Marc Jacobs.

Gigi Vintage Couture offers second-hand ladies' clothing and accessories as well as last season's designer outlet pieces. The emphasis is on great brands such as Gucci , Prada and Versace. Matching accessories complete the product range of the shop which is located in Vienna city centre.

Second-hand fashion from the collections of Giorgio Armani, YSL and other great designers at affordable prices - that's how Jil & Giorgio established itself. Apart from women ' s fashion, shoes, bags and accessories, the shop in the 9th district also carries children ' s clothing.

The period of time covered at Polyklamott ranges from the Sixties to the Nineties. The focus here is not on the elegance of expensive designer fashion of days gone by. Instead, everything revolves around extremely trendy and sometimes shrill T-shirts, pullovers, dresses and trousers. And Polyklamott also offers new pieces by young, mostly Viennese designers.

Carla offers used clothing as well as furniture and living accessories . At more than 8000 square metres, the shop floor would otherwise be a little large for textiles alone. Second-hand designer pieces and everyday clothing can be found here, and what is on offer changes constantly. By the way, Carla stands for " Caritas Laden " - in other words, everything you spend here goes to charity.
