On Saturday, March 29, Gigi Hadid will team up with Vogue to host a unique vintage shopping event in New York City, with all proceeds designated for those affected by the recent fires in Los Angeles. This one-day-only sale promises to showcase a diverse collection of iconic fashion pieces, highlighting contributions from various fashion luminaries.
Among the notable items available for purchase is a stylish 2010 Prada dress donated by Lauren Santo Domingo. Additionally, attendees will find a circa 2004 Dior logo mini-skirt and fanny pack belonging to model Kendall Jenner. Other noteworthy contributions include selected pieces from Vogue contributor and fashion icon Lynn Yaeger, who is offering items such as a tutu, a vintage velvet evening bag from the 1920s, and an aviator hat.
In a related discussion on the current episode of The Run-Through, a podcast featuring Nicole Phelps and Vogue’s Fashion Features Director Mark Holgate, Lynn Yaeger shared her insights into vintage shopping. “I guess at some point in my 20s, I decided that I really looked good in 1920s clothes and I was only going to wear 1920s clothes,” Yaeger reflected on the origins of her distinctive style, which Holgate described as “an incredibly individualistic look” that artfully combines elements from different eras and renowned designers.
The episode features a spirited discussion about favorite vintage shopping spots, including stories about taking time off work to explore international markets. Yaeger and Holgate also examine how the increasing popularity of vintage fashion has led to rising prices in the marketplace. Yaeger noted, “I’m always taken aback, but it’s still much more reasonable than [buying] new things.” Although she maintains a price-conscious approach to shopping, she admits that “it’s like a love affair, you know everything goes out the window when something is speaking to you.”
Listeners can enjoy more of Yaeger’s candid thoughts on vintage shopping, including what she refuses to do for one-dollar dresses, ensuring the episode offers a blend of insightful conversation and fashion-focused content.
