Seemingly ignorant and Frumpy Saleswoman was too pushy Encore was much more pleasant

Good prices, nice selection of clothing, beautiful bags and purses. I dislike leaving poor reviews or complaints but one thing I will complain about is getting kicked out of the dressing room I was in as I waited for my partner to make his way to the shop (needed a second opinion). Instead of asking if I could move my things, the owner or manager insisted that I leave the room so another customer can try on clothing, despite all my clothing and bags being in that room. I told her my partner was close but she still insisted that I leave the singular dressing room. She then took all my items and put them into the bathroom for me to use. This was done in front of the women she was sending to use the dressing room and my partner since he arrived as she was transferring all my items. I was a paying customer (spent over $100) while the other women just tried on the clothing and left shortly after. I'm not sure if it was my age given that I was much younger than the other women but that experience definitely left a bad taste in my mouth. I plan to come back because they have a nice selection of items but looking into a second dressing room (not a bathroom) for their business couldn't hurt so other customers don't run into the same issue that I did. Overall great shop, the young lady who did my checkout was so kind and helpful.

Shop is OK. I love wearing vintage and do a lot of vintage shopping and was interested in trying out a new shop despite the reviews. The selection was fine though there were quite a few non-vintage items mixed in. My biggest gripe is that the prices were absolutely too high for every item I looked at whether clothing or accessories. If you have the cash and are looking for something special then this might be a good place for you but you're paying more.

The seller body shames people who clearly know what size they are. I went in and she immediately asked for my measurements. Then she whispers “oh you’re actually a size 44”. First of all, I know what size I am. I regularly buy vintage. Second of all, why are you pulling clothes that are 15 inches bigger than what I just said? She even said she has to go upstairs to get “large sizes”…. Very rude especially considering she is not exactly a stick figure herself. Don’t let yourself get a complex about how you look from this woman. Not a way to win business or customers.

I asked the associate to hold a dress for an hour that i saw on the mannequin. When I came back to look at the store and get the dress the store was closed because "it smelt like rubber inside"..? She continued to sell me the dress which she didn't have to do but wouldn't let me enter to shop more :/ Not sure why they can be in the store but deny customers entry..probably would have bought a lot as the stored looked super cute.. Oh well, there loss as a business

My girlfriend and I stopped in while visiting Old Town this week. We immediately fell in love with the store. The owner, Eleanor, was just so pleasant to talk to and was so helpful. I’m not a fan of shopping but I even enjoyed myself! My girlfriend ended up buying two dresses. She can not stop talking about how great the store was! We definitely will be back!

I visited this store today to try on dresses with a friend and instead of getting to enjoy vintage clothes, we were condescended to and body-shamed. The lady (I assume the owner or manager, because she gave instructions to other employees) informed us about the way clothing was measured (bust/hip/waist) which was helpful, if not a bit redundant, but then any measure of politeness stopped when we stepped out in the gowns we'd tried on. She seemed disappointed that my breasts weren't bigger but somehow still insisted that the top was too tight. Secondly, she recommended I consider Spanx or "just a whole tummy tuck" to flatten out my abdomen so the dress would fit correctly. To my friend, she chastised her chest, recommending she drop a few pounds in order to have a better figure. There are several points I could make in response to this: how harmful comments like these can be for women at all ages, how the women who would've fit in these dresses starved themselves, how fundamentally inconsiderate and rude a person would have to be to think they have license to comment on another person's measurements. But most generally: Don't tell people to get plastic surgery or change their bodies at ALL in order to fit into clothes you are selling them. It's not "honoring vintage," it's being a bad salesperson. Clothes are made for our bodies, not the other way around. It seems unsurprising that I’m not the only person to have this experience, and even more disappointing that no apologies have been issued. Do better! Or at least do the bare minimum.

I’ve been to this shop several times over the years and never had a bad experience, until this past Saturday. As soon as my mom and I entered the store we greet the two young girls “working” (both were on their phones) one of them speaks over us doesn’t make eye contact and demands that we wear a mask and use hand sanitizer. I decline and say instead we’ll leave. I do not enjoy being treated as if I am sick, as well as a child. You cannot force another adult to wear a mask that has proven to not protect at all. I’m sure they are triple jabbed and of course double masked so why would it matter if someone else did not wear one. I see a common theme here from previous reviews, it’s as if the employees are carbon copies of the owner.

The dress I got was absolutely beautiful and I love it so much. The employees were so kind, welcoming, and even helped me find which dresses would fit me after taking my measurements. Definitely go here if you are looking for unique vintage clothes.

I was looking for items for a 1920's theme party, and went into the store with that information. I literally had to do nothing else! The staff was incredibly helpful pulling dress options and accessories for me to try. They even showed me a look book for ideas to gauge what my comfort and preferences were in the look. I had a blast shopping, and my outfit was perfect. Highly recommend checking out Vintage Mirage for any costume or theme party, and also just for statement jewelry and scarves and stuff. So much to offer, great prices for the quality, and a very enjoyable shopping experience.

The hour drive I made to this shop was so worth it! There's so much to look through! It is incredibly organized and every piece is labeled with details plus the time period when it was made. I spent close to 2 hours here and honestly could have stayed longer! It's a time capsule of beautiful garments! Ranging from $10 - $300. There's something for everyone! Margaux was so patient with me and informative. I left there with a 1920's fascinator (headpiece) of my d r e a m s. Go there with a concept of what you want and you'll be blown awayyyyyy at what they have!

Good selection especially of vintage jewelry, and in particular, clip earrings. Prices fairly steep though fir clothing as a lot of high end designer or expensive labeks.
