How many times have you purchased a “trendy” piece of clothing only for it to collect dust at the back of your closet and then eventually be thrown out? Fast fashion is notorious for being environmentally damaging as well as unethical towards workers—not to mention the numerous counts of art theft that have been committed against smaller artists and business owners by fast fashion brands. This is not to say that everyone who shops fast fashion is evil, but if you can afford not to, the power to stop the vicious cycle is in your hands. And on that note, shopping vintage is one of the most sustainable and creative ways to refresh a wardrobe. Here are five of our favourite vintage stores in Bangkok that we recommend finding your next #ootd at.
Characterised by its army green storefront, Overall Days draws you in at first sight with its aesthetic window display. Inside, the shop is filled to the brim with antiques handpicked from the USA. From quirky little trinkets to unisex apparel ranging from the late 1800s to 1970s, this “vintage shop of your dreams” has something special for everyone.

Take a break from the modern hustle and bustle of Thonglor to visit The Vintage Store. True to its name, the boutique is a one-stop shop for timeless high fashion and luxury items. While this one’s on the pricier side, investing in timeless pieces is sometimes the most rewarding option in the long run. It also doesn’t hurt to just window shop for some fashion inspo!
