Vintage shopping isn’t always glamourous. It often involves sifting through old, stained clothes to find a gem. While many might enjoy the hunt, shopping at Savannah’s House of Strut is made simple. That’s because their inventory is carefully curated and thoughtfully laid out.
After being enthusiastically greeted by the shop employees, I immediately noticed how well organized everything was. Every section was organized by color and clothe item type, which makes it very convenient. This is especially true if you’re shopping for a specific occasion. I could tell every item was hand-picked by true fashion lovers with thought and care for how pieces could be mixed and matched together to create the perfect outfit. All the items I picked out were in pristine condition and surprisingly distinct, I had to ask “Is this for real? Are the items in this store really vintage?” The answer is yes. Every item in the store is authentic vintage fashion. The shop employee even gave me the rundown of proper terminology, vintage versus retro. Retro items are reproductions inspired by old styles, while vintage refers to the actual age of the clothing piece itself, 20+ years.
