Shopping Tips

  • Visit on Wednesdays to see newly stocked items before other shoppers get first pick of the fresh inventory.
  • Don't hesitate if you love something—unique vintage pieces sell quickly at Trashed Vintage and won't be restocked.
  • Check their window display which often showcases seasonal collections and special themed merchandise.
  • Bring cash for potential discounts, though most vintage shops in Philadelphia now accept cards and digital payments.
  • Look through all sizes as vintage sizing differs from modern standards, and many pieces can be altered for a perfect fit.
