As a young girl I always loved fashion and dreamed of becoming a fashion designer.
I studied fashion and textile design at Syracuse University. I graduated and fulfilled my dreams of designing womens, tweens and childrens clothing at various companies over the years in New York City and LA.
AS my own personal style evolved, so did my passion for vintage.
As my vintage collection of jewelry and clothing grew, people kept asking me where did you get that dress, bag or piece of jewelry?"
And that's when my "ah ha" moment came and Chi-Chi Vintage as born.
The vintage pieces I collect are wearable looks from 1930's to 1990's and from amazing designers such as YSL, Valentino, Lanvin, Givenchy, Kenneth Jay Lane, Ciner and Geoffrey Beene to amazing unsigned pieces.
People always ask me "don't you want to keep everything for yourself" and my response is......
I love to see my clients look amazing and love a piece as much as I love it.
With the unique designs of the clothing and jewelry from decades ago.... it is easy to fall in love with vintage.
