Hello! My name is Carolyn, and I am the owner of Hello Vintage. Hello Vintage began as a side hustle while I was in college as a way of learning more about fashion history. I would search for old clothes, learn as much as I could about them, then sell them so they could find a new home. Because I am such a fashion history nerd, I became addicted to vintage clothing. After graduating university, I was faced with either getting a job in the “real world” or taking a risk and starting my own store. Thankfully, I chose the latter option and Hello Vintage was born.
The Hello Vintage store began as a small pop-up shop in Berkeley, then a few months later moved into our current location at 5488 College Ave in Oakland, CA. From the start, I wanted to focus on finding quality clothing, giving the clothing context, and promoting sustainable fashion through re-using existing garments.
Quality clothing means clothing that is made to last, as opposed to much of today’s cheaply made fast fashion pieces. The pieces in Hello Vintage have stood the test of time, and can continue to be worn again and again.
Giving context to clothing involves researching each garment to accurately describe what it is and when it is from. All of our item tags are handwritten with the decade it was made, the description of the fabrics and patterns, and any other relevant information, like the provenance or an interesting fact.
