TresChic Spotlight : Vintage Fiend

Today i decided to step away from the spotlight and feature an emerging brand that i feel my readers would love. It's a vintage clothing retailer called Vintage Fiend (VF) based in America.

Vintage Fiend stock vintage pieces with a modern twist at affordable prices. As a relatively new and emerging venture, i thought it would be a good idea to interview Imani, the lady behind the brand and get her to communicate her vision and where she sees VF's fit in the market.

Vintage Fiend was founded May 2012. VINTAGE FIEND IS YOUR ONLINE SHOPPING DESTINATION TO FIND THE MOST UNIQUE, EDGY AND FASHION FORWARD VINTAGE PIECES AT A STEAL! HERE AT VINTAGE FIEND OUR GOAL IS TO MIX "YESTERDAYS CLASSICS WITH TODAYS EDGE!

If we are really honest, they just don’t make clothes like they used to anymore. The quality and originality that is incorportated in our Vintage Items, is very hard to find in your everyday stores and if you do find these items, chances are they are high priced. So here at Vintage Fiend our goal is to bring you quality and affordability.
Some of the best looks originated in other time periods and we are constantly playing at the theme of mixing old and new, giving Vintage a fresh new spin while still maintaining a timeless appeal. We take great pride in handpicking every item that we sell, when we choose pieces we look for aesthetic appeal, is this hot? Is it original? How many ways can you rock this item?  But again we also look for quality, top notch fabrics, its condition, making sure that the items don’t look worn, but the colors are still vibrant and the textures are in order.
Our target audience is very simple it’s for the fashion lover. Our items can be worn by teens or by grown women. When we style our clothing we try to reach a broad audience. You see some items like the Kimono Jacket that is paired with a sheer bodycon dress, now obviously a grown woman with two kids might not find that appropriate but in the description of the item we give you style suggestions. That mom might find it more appropriately paired with some skinnies. Whatever your style there is a piece in our collection for you. I have been a fashion stylist for years working with photographers such as Johan Santos and Mark Dorsey of Imagus Images.  I am also co-owner of the clothing line Dirty Monroe with my best friend Shavona Powell. So I have had years of experience in the hustle and bustle of the fashion world. And I truly breathe it, it transcends into everything that I do and I take it very seriously.
We do ship internationally; everyone no matter where they are should enjoy our Vintage!!  We add new pieces to our collection generally bi-weekly. So there is always something new to choose from.  We do charge for shipping, shipping rates vary based on where you live. We do run specials from time to time, so do follow us on twitter @VintageFiend1 & check out our website HERE to keep updated.
