Why We Do What We Do
The Retro Wardrobe Newcastle’s go-to destination for curated vintage. From second-hand fashion to retro homewares, accessories, and forgotten gems — we honour the past while shaping a more sustainable future.
At The Retro Wardrobe, every single piece is handpicked - no bulk imports, no mystery bundles. Just thoughtful curation from the racks to the walls. Vintage, for us, isn’t just a style; it’s a lifestyle rooted in sustainability, self-expression, and soul. This space is more than a shop; it’s a welcoming community for anyone who values conscious fashion and a sense of belonging.
Here’s what drives us:
🌱 Sustainability – Saving clothes from landfill, one outfit at a time
🌏 Ethical Fashion – Rejecting fast fashion’s harmful practices
🧡 Community – A safe space where all styles and identities are celebrated
🕰️ Fashion History – Every piece is a story
🦋 Self-Expression – We honour freedom of style and identity
We’re here to change the world — one pre-loved garment at a time.
