We love A Vintage Tale, which features a hand-picked variety of designer clothes and accessories from across the world.

The antique gloriousness is a thrilling shopping experience – just gaze at the vintage wallpaper and try not to swoon. Owners Jasmine and Azzura also added Carolina Bar, a little nook dedicated to providing take-home wine and gin options, to improve consumers’ enjoyment!

Key Differentiators

  • Clothes from 50s to 90s
  • With archival pieces from iconic designers
  • Range of precious vintage jewellery from historical brands

Customer Testimonial

As a vintage addict I was always missing the experience of finding true gems here in Singapore. Until A Vintage Tale opened the doors. What a feast! I just can’t enter this shop without falling in love with one or more pieces. There are always great finds, Azzurra is a true vintage queen and very honest she will tell you if a dress is maybe not the perfect one for you, she will make you feel confident in a dress that you maybe thought was not meant for you. I love that!

My favorite shop in Singapore and beyond! And also a perfect place to have an aperitivo with your girlfriends. I even don’t know any vintage shop in Europe where you can have such a fun shopping experience.

Haji Lane, like other garment-strewn lanes and narrow alleyways in Hoi An’s Old Town, is known for its independent and under-the-radar fashion shops. This one is no different. With vintage gowns that appear to have been ripped straight out of a 1950s pin-up fashion catalog, you can live your vintage fantasies here.

Midi pleated skirts and dainty sweetheart necklines are among the most popular styles. However, it does not stop there; Grammah also sells trendy 90s-style items like colorful windbreakers, jackets, and even denim overalls.

Really cool place, fantastic music curation too. The collection of vintage clothing here is pretty awesome, and there are games and playstations here on which the owners welcome you to play. They even extended the opening hours a little for us so we could finish our game. Thanks so much for being so welcoming!

This is a favorite lifestyle boutique in Joo Chiat. Ryana Yusoff, the fun owner of this shophouse, has a carefully curated assortment from across the world.

Dresses with patterns that glisten, handbags (but we’re pretty sure they’re vintage Chanel) and varsity jackets for guys are all on the menu. Expect to discover anything from Nepalese brass collar necklaces and tropical earrings to original designs from the brand’s in-house collection at this antique shop.

This one is highly recommended.

Key Differentiators

  • Collection of contemporary and vintage apparel
  • Home decor
  • Wellness studio
  • Intimate event space

Customer Testimonial

A holiday away from the hustle and bustle of Singapore. Located in a quaint and charismatic neighbourhood in Joo Chiat. Eclectic Room exudes soul, creativity, one way or another as strange as it sounds I feel like I am transported in another world.
A space that I feel inspired, safe and I can be me.
I find the most niche home decor, accessories and apparel bringing a piece of Eclectic Room with me.
