About Twitch Vintage

Twitch Vintage is the second shop I’m featuring in a series of posts about great vintage shops on Ebay (in case you missed them, see Tips for Shopping on eBay, and The Best Vintage Shops on eBay: Bleubird Vintage) and I have to be honest – it might just be my absolute favorite simply because of the Orange Mod Dress featured above! So adorable.

Twitch Vintage is great – the owner adds 30 new auction items every Twitch Tuesday in the evening, meaning there is always new merchandise, and the clothes are just fabulous – really unique and always high quality. The only downside to Twitch Vintage is she does not accept returns, unless the buyer feels there was a serious misrepresentation of the garment; so before you buy, make sure you take very accurate measurements of yourself (ask a friend to help!) and compare them to the garment.

Why I Love Twitch Vintage

  • All items are handpicked and hand-measured by the seller, which means high quality and almost-exact measurements.
  • Styling – the styling in the photos is fantastic, which I think says a lot about a store! The items are made to look modern and beautiful with only the slightest touches – not always an easy feat. A store that provides inspiration for how to wear an item is always a plus in my book!
  • Twitch Vintage is one of Ebay’s highest-rated sellers. I have not heard of anyone who has had a bad experience with this shop!
  • A wide variety of items – not just dresses, but also some cute tops and great skirts. Everything looks different too – it’s not the same mod dress in 5 different colors, but a good mix of clothes from all decades!
  • As with BleuBird Vintage, all items in the shop start at $9.99, so if you bid early, you can probably get a fab dress for an even more fab price! Also, their Buy It Now prices are super reasonable.

    Overall, I think the clothes, at least the ones featured on this article, are not that special. If I saw them in a store I probably wouldn’t even give them a second glance.

    Hey,

    Will someone please tell me if poker straight hair is / will still be in fashion through spring-summer ’010? I’m planning to get mine thermally recondtioned, so I’d like to know if I’m gonna look like a fashion victim (though I just might not mind;)
