The Ultimate Vintage Experience
Posted November 14th, 2008
Fashion is like wine. It is great new, but with age it rises to a new form of perfection. Fashion is also like history in the fact that it repeats itself. Though innovation and foresight are the heart and soul of fashion, it is the past vision that is the inspiration.
There is a little gem in the Melrose Heights district of Hollywood where vintage is a virtue. A place where old school glam meets fashions most ambitious followers and new school talent. At Decades and DecadesTwo, shoppers have found their version of the end of the rainbow. Decades has been described as an “international destination for glamorous vintage couture.” Kate Moss and Keira Knightley are just two of Decades’ religious trendsetting a-list shoppers.
At this vintage shopper’s paradise, one will discover one of a kind creations hand-picked by owner, Cameron Silver, from around the globe. In the past, Silver has been named one of the 25 most influential names and faces in fashion. Silver definitely has an eye for finding the most desirable labels known to the fashion industry. His boutique, Decades, is filled with vintage designs from Balenciaga, Lanvin, Chanel, Balmain, Hermes, and Azarro. One can find anything from glamorous red carpet gowns to fabulous handbags and jewelry.
Decades is a one stop blast from the past filled with the most unique finds the 20th century has to offer. Though the prices at Decades may be steep, they are a bargain compared to what they once were. If ever nearby this museum-esque fashion palace, it would be wise to step inside and take a gander. You never know what may steal your heart!
