Melissa knows her stuff. You know how sometimes you walk into a vintage shop, and it just seems like a bunch of cheap crap they’ve acquired and are trying to sell back to you? You won’t get that feeling here. Everything in the shop is carefully picked out to be unique, on-trend, and of good quality. Vintanthromodern also carries a variety of new items(mostly accessories and gifts) that help make the shop feel modern. Often these are from local makers too. The place is spacious and packed with good variety, including men’s items too. Worth checking out, even if vintage is not typically your thing.

Classics never go out of style. Period. When we look at the world of fashion we always see echoes of the past and plenty of those echoes are not so subtle. Melissa and her team do a great job at sourcing and curating an eclectic inventory at Vintanthromodern. The fashion world is a circle where everything old becomes new again. Because of this, vintage is versatile. Take a walk around Vintanthromodern and I can gurantee you’ll find something for your wardrobe. Whether if you choose to be up to the minute fresh, or you’re looking to pair vintage items with new accessories: mix and match for an über-hip look that isn’t dated or retro. The men’s stuff is slowly building. Jackets, sport-coats, boots — those would be cool to see more of. For women, I’ve seen many friends walk away with all sorts of fashionable gems. Melissa also carries stuff from local vendors which is cool. Facial scrubs from Poor and Pretty Apothecary, knit beanies from Peterson Sweater Co, jewelry from Kate Stephen — Melissa is really cool about supporting local!

I visited Vintanthromodern for the first time on Small Business Saturday and was immediately impressed. I loved the little local touches with New Haven cards, prints, and other accessories/home décor. I loved the old maps available for purchase(especially the framed ones with sayings printed over them). I loved the vintage clothing, shoes, and home accessories(tablecloths, napkins, sheets, etc.) — and that everything came in a variety of sizes! I even took a picture of the decorations on the wall so I could copy it! I loved the style here. It can be a little tight to get around if there are a lot of people in the store, and I wish there were more changing rooms and that all of the shoes/boots had size stickers on them, but I think this is a much-needed addition to New Haven and hope it sticks around for a long, long time.

Happy Dance! Men, Women, and children friendly. Cute as heck! Clean, bright, well curated vintage clothing mixed with local beauty products, home goods, children’s clothing. Crafting events, fashion shows and more.

The Haven Collective is the perfect mix of vintage wonderland, craft space, and hip boutique. I’ve always enjoyed seeing the Vintanthromobile at local markets so it’s great to see it as a brick & mortar store! Not only is the space stunning, but they feature some incredible pop up shops that rotate throughout the year. I am SO excited about their craft area — it’s perfect for the DIYer, as the store features every kind of class from wire letter wall art to candle making, knitting, DIY bath bombs, calligraphy and more. I desperately want a place like this in Hartford but will gladly make the drive to New Haven in the meantime.
