Couture du Jour

This is one of my most favorite vintage stores in NYC! After running around to tons of other vintage shops looking for my perfect 50s formal dress, I thought that the customer service here was clearly the best. While I wasn’t able to find the exact dress I was looking for, Christine was really helpful with the accessories I needed for the 50s look! She is very knowledgeable and kind and I was completely satisfied with my shopping experience there!

I pass by this store most days on my walk home from the train at the Port Authority, and last week I finally decided to go in (several sparkly things in the window caught my eye)!
This is a gem of a store. I love consignment shopping, but I do tire of sorting through racks and racks of crap at most stores. The owner of this shop, a genuinely lovely woman, has a great eye for picking really remarkable, high-​quality vintage pieces. Yes, some items are quite pricey, but some of it is quite reasonable too.
I found a stunning YSL-​esque coat from the 1970s that makes me look pencil thin and super chic. I only paid about $ 200 for it — not bad for a fully lined wool coat that looks one-​of-​a-​kind! I’m sure if I went in there every day I would find a new, beautiful piece to add to my wardrobe.
Really, a great little store. Definitely worth another visit or two or twelve.

Stunning vintage clothing from 1800’s+. Prices range from $ 35-​$$$$. Eclectic to Classic finds and unique discoveries that will soon become your wardrobe favorites. Owner is stickler for «exceptionally clean» merchandise, we love our purchases!!!
