What’s your mission? “To restore individuality and sustainability to the fashion place.” Where do you source the clothes and accessories from? “We curate and purchase our vintage clothing and accessories from a few diff erent sources. All include vintage markets, wholesalers, and personal collections.” How would you describe your style? “Laid back. I’m very much into an eff ortless look all the way. Denim on denim, denim with a good graphic tee and blazer. I’m pretty simple. I don’t want to think too much about an outfi t. It kinda just comes together.” What always sells out? “Jeans tend to be our big seller [huge shock, not]. Nothing comes close to a pair of good vintage Levi’s. Graphic tops are good sellers too.” Do you have an interest from young shoppers? “Yes. A lot of young people right now are craving something diff erent. They are seeking authenticity and individual expression like they’ve never found before. I am not putting shopping malls down, but young people are shifting their loyalty.” So there you have it. Go forth and shop - but wait up for me, please. Bingeonvintage.com WORDS BY: OLIVIA ADAMS BINGEONVINTAGE.COM For Vintage I have a confession. After I unearthed the most brilliantly amazing vintage clothing store that delivers to the region, my fi rst thought was not to share it with you. Selfi sh, I know, but with such limited and exclusive gems for sale, I really didn’t feel like fi ghting at checkout. But then I had a word with myself, and here we are. So let’s start at the very beginning, shall we? I recently began hunting for the perfect pair of high-waisted, fl attering and good quality blue denim jeans. I noticed on Instagram uber-cool fashion infl uencer Rania Fawaz rocking a pair. “Where are your jeans from? I love!” I gushed on the snap. “ Binge On Vintage , babe, they do the best Levi’s,” she replied casually. I ordered everything I could aff ord... and emailed my appreciation to an address on the website. Hours later I got a reply from a lady called Aya, who happens to be the founder living in Seattle and running the website from her home. I then decided to interview her (I can’t help myself) and here’s what she had to say… Our fave e-com sites that deliver to the UAE! sites that will make you click- to- cart 58 | APRIL 2019 Are you following us on Instagram? @CosmoMiddleEastLACOMEDI.COM For Graphic Fans The homegrown independent label La Comedi , stocks a small collection of unique designs infl uenced by Arabic culture and electric graphic prints.
