The Best Vintage Clothing Stores In Perth
Haven’t you heard? Recycled clothing is in! Almost as much as nostalgia, and Perth is filled with plenty of keen-eyed beans sourcing pre-loved goodies from all over the globe. Here’s a few of our faves:
Bluebird Vintage
This is the vintage haven of your dreams. Located in Wembley, you won’t be able to miss Bluebird Vintage, with its quirky wares spilling onto the street. Their clothing selection leans towards 50s and 60s vibes, and while it’s mainly ladies clothing in stock, they have a few standout gems for the gents. Not just clothing, Bluebird stocks an extensive range of homewares, furniture, collectibles, bric-a-brac and more.
288 Cambridge Street, Wembley
Lucy In Disguise
Hidden away down a little walkway in Subiaco, Lucy in Disguise is a treasure trove for local vintage collectors. The store has a huge array of hand-selected clothing for men and women of almost any decade at various price points. And if you’re a commitment-phobe or have a special event coming up, they have a dedicated section for costume and event hire.
3/144 Rokeby Road, Subiaco
Tiki Queen Vintage
40s and 50s obsessives, I think you have found your match. Tiki Queen Tiff has been collecting vintage clothes and collectibles since she was a teenager and can be found popping up at various vintage markets around Perth, as well as by appointment at her Attadale “Boo-tiki” (her backyard Tiki bar). But if you’re someone who likes to browse from the comfort of their couch, her online store is unmatched in Perth – particularly if you’re looking for a party frock!
Various locations
Cool Cats Vintage
We don’t want to make anyone feel old, but Cool Cats stocks predominantly 90s vintage. As a 90s vintage myself, browsing their racks fills me with both nostalgia and a potential quarter life crisis. While they stock everything from hats, outerwear and accessories, vintage tees dominate – sports, movies, TV shows and bands, as well as labels like Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren. I didn’t think I’d ever need a Practical Magic t-shirt in my life, but now I’m not so sure.
557 Beaufort Street, Mount Lawley
Beat Happening
Freo’s Beat Happening is home to some pretty groovy vintage and recycled threads, records and collectibles. Think vintage denim, technicolour ’70s jackets, ’60s suede tasseled boots, ’50s swimsuits, as well as European ’50s eyewear. Psychedelic, man!
Tum Tum Tree Lane – 4/130 High Street, Fremantle
Cold Wave
Having just moved into their new digs down Wolf Lane, Cold Wave have made a big impression with their blend of vintage, streetwear, sneakers and consignment. Stocking a huge range of vintage tees – especially for NBA and 90s band fans – these guys will get you looking fresh.
3/321 Murray Street, Perth
Fi & Co
A long-time favourite for Perth’s vintage lovers, Fi & Co stocks a delightful mix of new and pre-loved fashion, as well as a few collectibles and homewares. Plus, they also have some local vegan soy candles and natural cold pressed soaps to really cover all the bases! From ’80s power suits to fancy frocks, Fi & Co will have you kitted out to the nines.
260 William Street, Northbridge
