LIMITED EDITION, RUNWAY AND HARD TO FIND PIECES ARE WHAT MAKE US DIFFERENT

We leave no stone unturned and make sure we choose the best pieces which transcend trends and stand the test of time.
WE BELIEVE EVERYTHING DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE
Whether featuring on our website and social media or being displayed at our showroom or multiple pop-up shops - we show the most coveted second hand vintage designer bags and items in the best possible light. Both in our approach to service and luxury packaging, we make sure we do the beautiful items we sell justice while honouring the brands that designed them. You can rely on our highly skilled and friendly team to go to extraordinary lengths to offer the same service you would expect when buying brand new.
YOUR TRUST IS OUR NUMBER ONE CONCERN
Rewind Vintage Affairs is based on trust and integrity. Every item you see on our website has been carefully curated and inspected multiple times. We conduct meticulous background checks to establish each item's provenance, authenticity and ownership history.
My name is Claudia. I've always had 'the eye' for unusual staples and these designs have defined my special relationship with fashion and art ever since I can remember. Ultimately, it's also why I turned my hobby into a career. I’ve travelled to over 70 countries around the world and along the way I have curated a collection full of exquisite items from clothing and jewellery to handbags, art and furniture. My passion for bringing the past back to the present and making it relevant again is what made me launch Rewind Vintage Affairs in 2010. More than 30,000 handpicked items sold later, our team has grown, and so has our presence in global locations where we showcase our unusual finds which are now recognised by international media outlets.
Modern art photography and everything Chanel. Miles Aldridge is my absolute favourite - he shot our pieces for Vogue Italy. My love for Chanel goes far beyond trends; it’s a constant hunt for something I have never seen before.
Shoes, boots, and trainers! There are two types of female tribes out there: the handbag tribe and the shoe tribe. I am part of the latter because buying shoes makes me feel less guilty!
A Gianni Versace dress and pair of jeans. I interned during the summer and spent my entire salary on designer clothing! Also, a number of early runway Prada styles from the 1990s and some seriously cool Gucci by Tom Ford pieces that I ended up selling to my local consignment store before I set up Rewind.
A small tweed mini Chanel bag. Within a year of its sale, the price tripled but more importantly, I‘ve never seen another one since. The owner of the bag was the most stylish client I ever met. Every item was accompanied by an extraordinary story and carefully stored in its original box. When she passed away, her husband sold the entire collection to us. It was exclusively showcased in collaboration with Farfetch and covered by over fifty of the most prominent fashion publications from around the world.
