What is You Pretty Vintch?
You Pretty Vintch is a unique online vintage store that specializes in one-of-a-kind pieces of clothing. We believe that everyone deserves to look and feel their best, and our selection of vintage clothing helps our customers do just that.

We offer a wide range of sizes, styles, and prices, so you're sure to find something that's perfect for you.
Why Vintage Fashion?
Not only does vintage fashion allow you to personalize your style, it is also counterculture to fast fashion; a clothing industry business model of mass-produced garments, at low cost to the clothing industry, but high cost to the environment. This popular trend is associated with water pollution, air pollution, low worker wages and a "disposable" mentality that perpetuates waste.
​
The fashion industry used to conform to a 4-season fashion cycle. Now, many brands are producing up to 52 micro-seasons worth of product within a single year. This equates to at least one new collection per week!
​
In order to meet the “be like me, look like me” demand, low quality materials and manufacturing techniques, leave buyers with a final product with a lifespan of a few washes before it enters the garbage dumps with millions of other similar garments.
What we offer?
At You Pretty Vintch Boutique, you will have an opportunity to select from well-made statement pieces that will not only enhance your wardrobe and define your personal style but will also reduce the negative impact on the environment by sourcing timeless vintage pieces that have already stood the test of time. Our carefully curated vintage collection includes very diverse pieces from street fashion to the board room and every aspect of life in between. As Marc Jacobs states, “Clothes mean nothing until someone lives in them.”
