Anyone can walk into a store and choose a mass produced item of clothing and probably get into a party later that night wearing the same outfit, maybe three other people there. Not so good. What a special feeling is knowing that what you wear is very unique, traveled through time unscathed but still held its own against even the most expensive designer clothes. Where can I find an article like this
As I approached the vintage Mecca on the island of Gili Trawangan off the northwest coast of Lombok, known as Casa vintage, the answer to my question was found ?; My eyes feasted on the screen before me.
At first I thought it was a cafe, as there was a colorful array of sets of antique furniture placed around the circumference of the walls whitewashed. Wood trees long gone painted the colors of lollipop candy store, and the metal frame of the old school, fashioned in the coolest pieces of furniture you might find in the Cuban film of 1960.
My eyes were drawn to a floating floral swimsuit carefree on a hanger in the window. It took my imagination to the day a young girl first unpacked from its brown paper wrapping, and with pleasure, taking a bath in a river marveling at the softness of which water slides on her new swimsuit. She was the envy of all the girls who ventured to the river this summer of '69, and it was all because of that swimsuit she attracted the eyes of her first love.
And that, my friends, is the trip you'll take to the entrance Casa Vintage, you cast your eyes on each separate item of clothing and furniture to humble homewares. There is a story behind each piece and it is waiting for you to give him yet another story. So let the story begins.
