Library: Archives of Fashion

Posted by Erica Jackson on Tue, Mar 31, 2009 at 12:53 PM

Charleston's sadly lacking in options for the vintage clothing lover, but it seems like some people are beginning to recognize the hole in our shopping community. We've got a few options like Culture Vultures and Estella Vitae, and now we can add Library: Archives of Fashion to the list. Owner Lauren Lail has traveled to vintage shows and shops across the country and beyond to create her extensive collection of classic clothing and accessories. She doesn't have a storefront just yet, but on Thursday, you can be one of the first to check out her collection from her home studio at 105-B Rutledge Ave. The exclusive launch party is from 4-9 p.m. You're sure to find plenty of unique pieces for the summer. RSVP to jtyler@leapfrogprco.com. —EJ

As fun as its been being Charlestons "Best Kept" Secret. Exchange Factor is an affordable and amazing little Vintage Shop. Strangely we have won "best of" in the City Paper year after year but cant seem to get any mention otherwise. Seriously, if the word gets out to other than just the college girls we will just find more great stuff! Promise

Very true Joan! When I was writing the post I didn't list all of the vintage shops in town, just the ones that came to mind right away. But Exchange Factor is always a staple in local vintage shopping. Thanks for reminding us!
