The highly-anticipated Vintage Fair returned to Journey East in April 2023 for its 8th year! We invited partners from some of the best vintage boutique businesses in Singapore, celebrating all things retro and vintage alongside our own Journey East vintage collection.
For a full weekend of 1-2 Apirl, Vintage Fans experienced true vintage from some of the finest purveyors, curators, and collectors from Singapore’s vintage community. Ranging from fashion, jewellery, glassware, watches, collectables, décor accessories, and heirlooms, shoppers came to browse the veritable treasure trove of authentic items from a bygone era.
It was the perfect shopping weekend for the discerning buyer who was on the lookout for unique and rare pieces for the home, wardrobe, or as a gift. The collections from our partners were true labours of love, individually handpicked and sourced from around the world.
We were happy to feature (in alphabetical order):
