The Vintage Mode Journey: A Tale of Passion and Preservation

Our adventure, Vintage Mode, began in the heart of Germany during the vibrant 1990s, a period marked by our exploration and life abroad. It was here, amidst the bustling flea markets overflowing with relics of the past, that we stumbled upon our first treasure: tattered women's magazines dating back to the late 1700s. These weren't just any magazines; they were windows into a time when fashion was a personal endeavor, crafted by hand, a necessity for those who desired stylish attire but could only afford to create it themselves.

This discovery ignited a passion within us, a fascination not only with the evolution of fashion but also with the stories of life and the enduring spirit of women encapsulated within these pages. Our collection of these historical fashion books grew, each volume a fragment of the tapestry of fashion and women's history.


After a decade of living amidst foreign treasures, we returned home, our suitcases and hearts filled with hundreds of these precious jewels. The ensuing years were dedicated to painstakingly scanning and editing each magazine to make them accessible to the public.

We invite you to delve into these magazines, which have been a source of joy and inspiration for us through the years. Vintage Mode is more than a company; it's a journey through the history of fashion, an ode to the timeless elegance of women's creativity and resilience. Enjoy the exploration as much as we have.
