Mamas Vintage specializes in online vintage clothing and accessories,
concentrating on modern and vintage items for the ladies. Some
of our items are in pre-loved condition and some are brand new.
Currently, items are only sold through yahoo and ebay auctions.
We are located in the small island of Singapore.
It all started with the idea of providing
affordable ladies apparel for the chicas focusing mainly in
Singapore. As the trend for vintage wear became more apparent,
however, items offered in most retail shops are often pricey.
Perhaps, mamasvintage could be your next vintage shopping alternative.
In addition, we love mixing vintage and modern day pieces.

cleaning, photography, handling and manages the website! Lots

Simply because fashion has not changed dramatically over the past 70 years. Older clothing still fits today's fashions and styles. Many times, the latest fashion is just a take of a previous style from a previous decade. Plus wearing a vintage garment is like wearing a made-for-you original: no one else will have the same thing! And you have that special ambience of knowing that your clothing has more to it than most people realized.
Fashion is constantly repeating itself and thus bringing garments from the past back as trendy modern day attire. Previously, a vintage clothing store's cliental were solely individuals that were collectors of eccentric pieces, or individuals that were looking for something only to wear to a costume party. But now, times have changed.

Vintage could mean differently to different people. To us, it really means anything that's not being made today. Last spring could be vintage. Or garments from the 90s could be vintage in the future years. Vintage has become style and not just a decade.

If you love vintage style, but perhaps you like to mix and match vintage and modern styling, you're in luck. From the runways to the clothes you buy off the rack, vintage is inspiring today's fashion.
The increasing popularity of vintage has worked its way into
the mainstream. Every single fashion magazine is incorporating
some sort of vintage piece in its editorial. These magazines
are rife with updated takes on the tweed suits, pencil skirts,
full skirts, circle skirts, fur collars, cardigans, cropped
jackets, lovely dresses, cinch belts, and accessories such as
brooches, gold necklaces and purses with chain handles coming
from the 1940s and 1950s.
