5 vintage shops with a retro vibe in Antwerp

1) Think Twice

The Finnish second-hand chain Think Twice now has four branches in Antwerp where they sell glamorous vintage dresses, shoes and bags. Look out on their Facebook page for T2 special promotions when they sell off everything in stock at prices that make no economic sense. By the third day, you can pick up stuff for just one euro.

4) Rosier 41

Hidden down a quiet side street, this is a good address to hunt for nearly new clothes by designers like Dries Van Noten, Ann Demeulemeester and Jil Sander. The window display often features clothes by young designers fresh from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts.

5) Melting Pot Kilo

Locals love to dig around in this vintage store in the heart of the fashion district where clothes are sold by the kilo. It’s a cool idea that originally emerged in Paris. There are weighing scales dotted around the store so you can check the price of that snug winter coat before you head to the cash desk.
