Suddenly, they're popping up like mushrooms: designer vintage shops. And that's a good thing, because for a better future for our planet, we're better off buying secondhand than new. Besides, what's better than a hidden gem from the distant past, that only you own? It certainly makes our fashion hearts beat faster, and we're thrilled with the addresses below, which together form a complete overview of the best designer vintage shops in Amsterdam. Be warned: you won't leave most shops empty-handed.

These are the 9 best designer vintage stores in Amsterdam

No two designer vintage shops are the same, so it's wise to be prepared. While ENSO Vintage, for example, focuses on the cool, minimalist vintage aesthetic, Salon Heleen Hulsmann is the place to be for newer items looking for a second home. Gimme Glitter and Fashian offer a wide Y2K selection, and ByDanie Vintage offers a cacophony of color. It's a good way to prepare for your vintage shopping spree. Time for an overview of the best designer vintage shops in Amsterdam.

ENSO Vintage

ENSO Vintage had only an online store for a long time, but they've since moved to the heart of the city center, on Elandsgracht (and recently expanded to Antwerp!). The selection is fairly minimalist and includes items from various eras, which are always good. Think Maison Margiela Tabi shoes, Gucci loafers, or Pleats Please by Issey Miyake. For the minimalists among us, this is one of the best designer vintage shops in Amsterdam. Elandsgracht 12H, Amsterdam. ensovintage.com

Salon Heleen Hulsmann

Salon Heleen Hulsmann offers modern designer vintage items, which aren't necessarily vintage, but rather secondhand. Everything is high-quality, and Heleen only accepts items in good condition. You can visit by appointment for one-on-one advice or during their general opening hours. Jacob Obrechtstraat 18, Amsterdam. salonheleenhulsmann.com

(im)material

(Im)material on Haarlemmerdijk is small but charming. Their selection of vintage designer blouses is particularly good: from (Yves) Saint Laurent to Burberry and many other classics. Be sure to check out the men's section for the ultimate hidden gems. Haarlemmerdijk 171, Amsterdam. instagram.com/immaterialcorp

Gimme Glitter

Gimme Glitter is—as the name suggests—full of glitter and Y2K excess. Nineties sunglasses, Gucci bags, and other items covered in logos are everywhere. Without a doubt, one of the most eclectic and best designer vintage shops in Amsterdam. Herenstraat 19, Amsterdam. gimme-glitter.com

Fashion

Just like Gimme Glitter, Fashian also offers a wide selection of Y2K designer vintage items. If you're a fan of the Tom Ford for Gucci era, you've come to the right place. Looking for a vintage designer bag? Then Fashian is also the place to be. Hartenstraat 1, Amsterdam. instagram.com/highendfashian

ByDanie Vintage

If you love color, the ByDanie Vintage Store in Oud-Zuid is your go-to. Just like owner Danie Bles, the selection is anything but boring. Every color is brighter than the last, and striking prints are everywhere. Trust us, it'll instantly cheer you up. Cornelis Schuytstraat 45, Amsterdam. instagram.com/bydanievintagestore

Roski Yard Vintage

Roski Yard Vintage is open by appointment only, but that shouldn't spoil the fun. This way, you can be sure you're not crammed into a small shop with too many others, and you'll have plenty of time to really browse the wide selection of designer vintage. Because that's what you really want to do at Roski Yard Vintage. Timorplein 44, Amsterdam. roksiyard.com

The Collectives

The Collectives is actually a company that rents designer vintage clothing, but if you're truly in love with an item, you can also buy it. They have a wide range of classics, such as Chanel jackets and bags, Hermès, Isabel Marant, and many other designers that will make your heart beat faster. Shopping or renting is possible by appointment. Elandsstraat 111, Amsterdam. thecollectives.amsterdam

Reverse Studio Amsterdam

Reverse Studio Amsterdam offers not only designer vintage, but also other high-end brands like Sandro, Samsøe Samsøe, and Acne Studios (which, incidentally, does count itself among designer brands). The same goes for this store: it's hard to leave empty-handed, but then again, that's probably not why you went in. Eerste Boomdwarsstraat 2hs, Amsterdam. reverseamsterdam.com

HOME ALONE 4 INCOMING 😅 My trip to NYC ends in a bad (Christmas) movie when the hotel gives my carry-on with my passport to an old lady who doesn't realize it and checks it in for a flight to the UK! Now I'm stuck here in NY without my passport, and I've missed my flight. I've experienced a lot in all the years I've been traveling for Your Little Black Book, but this is a first 😅. This chat video is purely therapeutic in nature 🤣🤣🤣. Because really: HOW?! 🫢 Note to self: better to take my passport with me all day, instead of leaving it 'safely' in the hotel apparently... and from now on, suitcases should be tied together with a cable in the storage room. Even if you're in a luxurious and expensive hotel, everything is still human work. Now I'm stuck in one of the nicest cities in the world, but of course I just want to be home with Manuel as planned. 😔 To be continued 🧳✈️ And thanks for all the sweet DMs ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ✖️✖️✖️ Anne
And do you also have a nice garden? I want to thank you for your patience and help. 𝟳-𝗷𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲! This time we went to @williams.farmhouse one of my favorites for lunch in Amsterdam Oud-Zuid. But is this also fun during the day with kids? We ordered a 'plain' version of the Farmhouse burger 🍔: yes, really just meat + cheese 🤣… and together with the fries it was a mega success. Child happy, us happy… and it was such a cozy, rainy afternoon. I mean this interior, I immediately dream away to the Cotswolds again!
