GATEKEEPING FUTURE VINTAGE
We started the idea of Future Vintage in 2012. We see patterns in style cycles and demand by looking back into contemporary fashion history, (we start at punk), and what our clients want. A simple concept based on know-how and experience. In 15-20 years from now, what vintage will be available based on today’s designs and culture? Elevate your fashion heroes and buy from young talent who are the future of fashion.

Just because it’s old doesn’t mean it’s good.
Our edit is ruthless for people who don’t want to be figured out.
Look books are updated and released when the collections are ready – you’ll want to subscribe
Editorial
We’re not for beginners and we’re not here to spoon feed. We find the obscure connections between fashion history and the future of fashion, like you’re seeing it for the first time.
We work with brands and publications for interviews, reviews, exhibits, concepts and content.
Reissues
We’re not slaves to data but we see what you want.
We’re in an industry that produces too much but we need to do better.
We recognize and resurrect clothes with more meaning than the mainstream, that were created by the contemporary vintage designers on every designer’s mood board today. We’ve brought back and sold-out collections by Helmut Lang, Vexed Generation, and Claude Montana with Gareth Pugh.
EXHIBITIONS AND PUBLISHING
Does unseen historical ephemera ma\er for exhibition or publishing worthiness? Is a good collection that has been seen before worthy of an exhibition or a book? Can a good collection with unseen ephemera be judged the same as a collection that has not been seen on its own?
We turn collections into ideas and experiences you haven’t seen before.
