Moore Vintage Archive is a treasure trove for fashion lovers—not just a vintage shop, but a meticulously curated collection of rare and archival designer pieces. Every item feels intentionally selected, with a mix of avant-garde, high fashion, and timeless classics that make it a dream for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
I finally got my hands on an archive Issey Miyake Fête piece I’d coveted since seeing it on the runway, and it was absolutely perfect for a special event this month. No other retailer in the U.S. (that I know of) carries as much Issey Miyake as Moore does, and knowing this is my business! Their selection of iconic and hard-to-find designer pieces is next-level. You’ll find everything from Comme des Garçons to Celine to YSL to Yohji Yamamoto, with an emphasis on wearable art and innovative design.
The space itself is intimate and inviting, making for a shopping experience that feels both personal and inspiring. If fashion is your business —editors, stylists, artists, managers— you need to know about this place. It should be in your arsenal of spots to check out, especially during awards season! It’s the kind of place where every visit uncovers something new, and if you love fashion history and statement pieces, it’s dangerously good.
