At the recent All Vintage Everything pop-up shop from DNA (designers+artists), shopping and vintage fans turned up at the Sub-Mission Gallery for the clothes, shoes, bags and jewelry from a roster of vendor hosted by local favorites Fancy Fine and Mousevox Vintage.

The Sub-Mission Gallery’s discreet, unsuspecting location was the perfect setting for the pop-up of 10 different Bay Area vendors selling a treasure trove of items.

I bee-lined past the bar in front for the racks and, while perusing one stocked with designer labels and then venturing to other vendor tables, I found a huge assortment of affordable, hand-picked thrifted sundresses, blouses, silk trousers and more.

The sweet selection of goods is no accident.

DNA founders, Myra Joloya & Lirany Vasquez explained:

“We love vintage clothing, and we curate each pop-up shop to host vendors that we are familiar with and like. San Francisco is a hub for some of the best vintage. This shop makes it easier for people to afford designer brands and recycle clothing.”

Didn’t make it this time around? The creative collective organizes four, seasonal pop-up shops a year: one for fall, winter, spring and summer. Stay up to date by visiting the DNA facebook page and continue on for more shots from the night:

Party Seen: All Vintage Everything

March 29, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Can more bars please install flame-painted vans? We like.

A slew of folks turned up for last week’s All Vintage Everything, where handpicked vintage and strong drinks at SubMission Gallery sought to take the sting out of the cold, rainy night. We indulged in both and snapped shots of the party scene while we were at it.

Vendors Goodbye Heart, Hummingbird Vintage, Retrofit Republic, Bayside Boutique, Paola Loves to Shop and Pretty Little Thing joined makeup artist Nikol Elaine and feather extensions from The Mission Statement for an evening that offered a little something for everyone.

We Came, We Saw, We Shopped: All Vintage Everything 3

September 28, 2010 By Leave a Comment

At the All Vintage Everything event at SUB-Mission gallery, there was something unique from every vendor, including crocodile purses, funky sunglasses and belt buckles, killer shoes, amazing coats, beautiful dresses and handmade accessories.

As for the vibe, the people were super-friendly, and the cocktails were tempting on such a hot day. What more could you ask for? (Well, maybe some clothes for the guys out there. We like to shop, too.) All in all, All Vintage Everything was a great opportunity to shop for one-of-a-kind pieces, and it definitely wasn’t hard to find something worth taking home, thanks to event organizer Myra of Designers and Artists and the vendors such as Jaguar Lipstick, Bred Vintage, Gileads Treasures, Sorcery and Mob Shop Underground.

Oh, and if you missed out, here’s the good news: you can find most of the shops on etsy.
