“Walking into this store excited me. They have a beautiful curation of bonsais and unique plants at a surprisingly affordable price (with the pots) the owner Felix seems really sweet and personable and we look forward to going back!”
“Ten out of five stars for Melynda and her all volunteer Quirk crew for creating the People's Free Boutique in an unused corner space in DTLA, providing much needed, intentional, and high quality clothing and supplies for those of us who lost everything in LA's January fires. My family and I came to Quirk and were welcomed with care and respect, mirroring the quality and thoughtfulness of the clothing offered, and being given the dignity of choice to dress ourselves in clothing that we prefer.
The Quirk crew were professional and kind, dealing with a gradually melting down child and frazzled adults, recognizing and validating the collective trauma of their guests, and providing a space of hope, solace, and care out of the goodness of their hearts.
I was able to restock much of my professional and casual wardrobe, grab some high quality toiletries, kids clothing, and an epic penny board for my kid. I cannot recommend a visit to the People's Free Boutique and Melynda's Quirk store on 9th enough!”
“Absolutely awesome little hidden gem! They have beautiful paintings and furniture. The jewelry is gorgeous. Not expensive at all! Very affordable and cheap. I will be coming back thanks!”
“THIS PLACE IS MAGICAL! I've been a customer and seller at The Curatorial Department for three years now and what Wendi has done to the store is frankly amazing. Like, the place lives up to its name, as every inch of what would be an ordinary storefront has been curated into a sensorial experience of some kind, worth stopping by just for itself.
And if you are shopping, the clothes are extraordinary. It's a little bit like a vintage dream closet, where absolutely amazing garments by beloved designers are collected by the dozens. Hundreds? Probably a thousand or two. Anyway, it's awesome to behold, a tour through decades of fashion where everything's for sale at judicious prices.
And fr, would my wife be rocking that Issey Miyake suit if we hadn't come in here that one day? The answer is no, and we'd be worse for it because she looks amazing.
Business-wise, I have found Wendi to be straightforward, honest, and no bullshit. She's just a pleasure deal with.”
“Teresa is so friendly. Took the time to ask me what I was looking for and was kind enough to provide options. I went in looking for work pants and left extremely satisfied! Even found vintage overalls for my son. There are plenty of options to choose from! Excellent customer service. I can't wait to come back!!”
“Such a cool place! I could spend hours in this store going through the ever-changing items of wide variety. I found several things I didn’t know I needed and now I have and love! To boot, by supporting this business, you’re supporting women-owned businesses, with ethically sourced items. Definitely check out this LA shopping gem with cool people and great music!”
“This place is a gem! Really great finds and Jazmin is very knowledgeable as to the inventory and history of so many of the pieces. I didn’t buy anything today but definitely coming back for some storage pieces.”
“The very best vintage store! Lynette is AMAZING and super helpful with styling. Supergoodie has the most reasonable prices of any vintage store I know! I always find something amazing here”
“Having read the reviews below and having met Michi & Patrick, I couldn't agree more with the high praise for this East Hollywood institution. I was in search of vintage rock shirts for a young musician friend of mine - specifically AC/DC - and within 5 minutes Michi had pulled out the winning Tee! Of course I stayed longer to browse their vast & varied collection. It was a great experience! And Michi, you'll be happy to know she absolutely loved it! ? Danke / bedankt again for your help and time to chat!”

“I haven’t really been to many thrift stores but decided to wander into this one and was really blown away by the selection and size. Store was easy to navigate by sections and had tons of cool finds. I expected the prices to be LA-stupid but most things actually seemed super affordable, as they should be at this kind of a store. Thank you management & staff for everything on this one.”
“Excellent service! I purchased a one of a kind Leather Stool from Moti at a great price with same day delivery. Also he assembled a furniture piece I purchased from ikea that same day! I highly recommend”
“What a lovely little treasure trove! definitely a lot to look at , maybe need an extra day .. Staff was very nice and able to answer my questions but they made me sleep in the basement! Overall definitely a worthwhile stop in the antique circuit ... will be back tomorrow!”
“This is the best vintage store i have ever been to. It is like a whimsical, magical beautiful place full of all the most special and perfectly curated clothing items. The ambiance, styling and overall quantity of high fashion and vintage items blows any other quaint vintage shop out the water. I saw it from Santa Monica blvd, and stopped in. Ended up spending more than an hour inside carefully looking through items. Finding gems! There is a plethora of accessories, pins, jewelry, you name it really. You have to come here while you're in town!!!”
“Such an amazing little shop in LA! I love that you can shop online and pick up your order in-store and I’ve bought some truly incredible pieces! Don’t sleep on the homewares here!!”
“Great selection of true vintage garments at good prices. If you’re lucky cutest shop dog ever! Brought me their toy to my feet and enjoyed lots of pets. A must stop.”
“HUGE selection of vintage clothes with a focus on cowboy, BUT...
Venture downstairs - that's where they have the really interesting stuff in my opinion. Old uniforms - school, military, scouting, forest ranger - you name it! Some are really vintage, like 1950s/60s. I also found the basement items were a bit more reasonably priced than upstairs.
There's also an UPSTAIRS, loft level with shoes and boots, but in my opinion the basement was solid gold.
Even if you aren't looking for clothing, this place is like a museum of mid-century clothing of all styles. It's right on Hollywood Boulevard, so add it to your to-do list in L.A.!”

“My new favorite clothing store/line. Im loving the anime/pop culture mashups. I don't even like shopping and I went through their entire store. I bought a $30 T-shirt, two of them! There's an alternate reality version of myself where this store doesn't exist and I'm questioning how Malcolm(616 version) went so terribly wrong. They even put me on my new favorite band, Atarashii Gakko. You're welcome for those who didn't know, and I'm sorry I'm late for the ones who did. Going to keep their website on lock, they sell hats, kids sizes and artwork with their designs. It's a collective of artists so the designs are varied in style, but have similar aesthetics. All their ish is hot fire though. So if you want to nerd out and still look like a fashionable adult, check them out before Shein steals their designs and puts them out of business.”
“My daughter and I really enjoyed our visit to The Way We Wore last weekend! Andrew was so kind and helpful. We came by with just half an hour to spare. Andrew picked out several pieces for me to try. There are so many unique and beautiful items. It was really fun to learn that Sabrina Carpenter had shopped there with her stylist, especially since my daughters and I were headed to a Sabrina concert that night. I walked away with a cozy and flattering Moncler puffer, perfect for San Francisco's year-round winters. Thank you, Andrew!”
“Bought a 35mm P&S from Charlie's store. Was so friendly to walk me through the camera's quirks and showed me some pictures he'd gotten developed with the same camera. Great place.”
“I'm a food vendor here. Our booth is located on the top floor of the structure. Sizzle and stack burgers. Come on down and enjoy some good food and good vibes. Trust.”
“Well I'm hooked. Jesse helped me pick out two pieces. His patience and their incredible selection made it hard to choose only two jackets. New to the style and was made to feel like a regular immediately. Can't wait to go back! Tysm”
“Such a welcoming space for creatives in worship! I’ve connected with musicians and leaders from all over the world here. It feels less like a platform and more like family.”
“I visited on the first and last day of my US shopping trip. The selection changes every two weeks, so I was able to buy more cute secondhand clothes than I could carry on both days!”
“Our experience was absolutely amazing. We found an amazing ring here at Platt Boutique and my wife absolutely loved it. 1 year later Larry was able to help us out resizing it for my wife. Platt did an amazing job and cleaned it to look like new again. Awesome awesome!”
“Went in to try to find an outfit to go out in tonight, seemed bleak at first but after some solid hunting found two badass sexy dresses to wear! My bf left the clothes area a mess and after the worker saw me clean it up and hang up what he left behind, she charged him 15 a piece for what he got , which weren’t higher end looking or uncommon by any means ( still nice quality and he looks amazing in everything ) and only charged me 5 a piece for my higher end pieces ????
(pro tip: just have them see you clean up after yourself or whoever you came with haha)
They have some REALLY badass /unusual / super high quality furniture sets and pieces in here! And get new inventory twice a week, I can’t wait til we get our own place so we can come back here and cop some!!”
“I'm lucky to have this boutique shop in my neighborhood. The unique and hand crafted selections are beautiful. I especially love the candles , jewelry and ornaments.”
“Such a great place to go and see all they have to offer . They rotate a lot so every time you come there’s new artists and new painting ?️ out in the halls surrounding the gallery. They offer a big range of items they sell . They have art supplies and stationary . I highly recommend coming during the Art walk as it’s has special items it’s the first Thursday of each month from 6-9 pm .”
“This place not only is incredible for all my sourcing, but the facility is always clean and organized. I can spend hours and hours in there, it’s my personal heaven. I’d like to note that the employees there are beyond kind and friendly. Always so helpful and make each experience I’ve had better than the last. Can’t wait to keep coming back!”
