Vintage isn’t just a fashion trend, it is a lifestyle based on circular fashion and on acknowledging the true value of an item. Hidden within the word Vintage there are multiple concepts: recycle, reuse, upcycle, sustainable, creative… and decluttering! Intuition and fantasy can bring – almost – everything to new life. Whatever you don’t wear anymore can become a key piece in someone else’s wardrobe instead of just collecting dust at the back of your cupboard, avoiding to fall all to soon oblivion or on a pile of garbage.
It is however important to rely on someone who can truly understand the value of an item, someone who can appreciate its design and manufacture and who can properly evaluate its conditions. Someone who, like Cavalli e Nastri, can allocate a vintage garment in the right context.
What kind of vintage clothing do we buy? We buy (and sell) timeless beauty. Clothes that used to be beautiful and that will always remain beautiful. We do not buy fast fashion or poor quality products.

- Vintage menswear and womenswear - from the 1800s to the Seventies
