GRANDMA TAKES A TRIP

Focusing on vintage and retro clothing from the ’20s through to the ’90s for women and men, Grandma Takes a Trip is like walking into a fashion history book, where you also get to try on (and buy) anything you like! The prices here reflect the quality and condition of the clothing, so while you won’t find many bargain-basement steals, you will find really unique pieces that will make you stand out like Audrey Hepburn in a room full of Tracy Grimshaws — and that kind of fashion, my friends, is worth every penny. Dresses from the 1950s are a specialty and start from $229, with ball gowns starting from $450. Frocks from the ’90s are from $79, and ’80s dresses from $129. Stock is very high quality, sourced from the UK and USA, and is replenished every couple of days. There are plenty of glamorous 20th-century accessories including hats, bags, jewellery and belts.
