This place is very classy for women’s fashion and dressing to impress if you’re interested in unique pieces and not fast fashion. Clean and a very nice couch in the back if you’re a guy. It is women’s clothing only. They do provide handle booklets for other Austin vintage collectives. Very fun vibe.
The owner takes it upon herself to insult her potential sellers by making uneducated insinuations regarding the authenticity of inherited pieces. Even when presented with a verified Entrupy Certificate she chose to insist that I was lying and attempting to press upon her, an inauthentic 1970’s Christian Dior tote.She claimed that there was no date stamp.... obviously she knows nothing about Dior because if she DID she’d know that they only began their date stamping to curb counterfeiting of the Lady Dior bag in 1997 after the passing of Princess Diana caused the bag to increase in popularity as it was commonly referred to as the “Lady D” bag.She claimed the lining was incorrect....Christian Dior did not begin using a monogrammed or marked lining until the 1990’s and in some rare cases during the 80’s. Bags were not made in-house and were sourced through other factories. Hardware was not stamped and the lining was not marked.Thirdly.... the bag was inherited from my grandmother whom I sat beside as she died. I know for a FACT that this bag was authentic and to insinuate otherwise is not just ignorant but OFFENSIVE.I walk into both Garment and Moss and can name any bag on their shelves by Designer and often times by style. I have educated their staff on more designer facts than I expected. They and their staff are surprisingly ignorant when it comes to the brands they are re-selling.I am also a person who comes into their stores and buys up the bags they can’t push out the door and have spent a good deal of money there.With all of these facts stacked together it goes without saying that I am well in my right to be offended.If you want a beat up 1980’s Gucci bag with half the monogram rubbed off the canvas, the leather worn with exposed piping, and the interior lining cracked and peeling: THIS is the store to go to.And if YOU are interested in a TWICE CERTIFIED AUTHENTIC vintage 1970’s Christian Dior Trotter Monogram tote.... hit me up.
A gem right in the heart of Austin. I appreciate how thoughtfully this store presents its offerings. Each piece is important, whether it is a vintage Gucci tee or an incredibly ornate Japanese wedding kimono. There is something for everyone - and all of it is quite good! No junk. No overcrowded displays. The store is airy, open, and inviting. I also love how the owner has incorporated new RTW pieces into the shop. Its a great balance of modern and vintage.Masha has a great eye and a true love for what she does... and it is clear when you walk in that care was taken in. curating the collections of amazing garments, jewelry, and accessories. A few of my most loved pieces are from Garment and I will continue to shop here and tell everyone how much I love this place.
I’ve been here a few times before, but today was my last time coming here. The owner was on the phone with a plumbing company and started yelling at whoever was on the phone right in front of customers in the store. Super unprofessional IMO. My birthday is coming up so I took pictures of a few items I really liked in the store and the owner rudely asked why I was doing that. Nowhere does it say customers can’t take pictures. I felt like I was being judged while shopping too. The owner wasn’t wearing a mask either. Never again.
Bought a very expensive suede skirt yesterday and did not realize until I got home that it had stains on it. I looked at the receipt and noticed at the bottom it stated “final sale”, which was not mentioned to me in the store during purchase. Y’all should consider making it mandatory to inform the customer when something is final sale and I would have appreciated having known it were. When it comes to customer service, that is an issue. Good customer service would be informing your guests of the policies when they are making a purchase. I’ve been obsessing over this stain for hours this morning trying to figure out ways to get it out and have not been able to and it should have been discounted due to the stains, especially since now after trying a handful of methods I will most likely have to take to professional dry cleaner (another expense that I would have considered when purchasing the skirt).
Really beautiful and unique, funky selection. Very nice woman working there, not snooty at all. Not cheap, but relatively speaking I think it is still within the realm of reasonable for what they have. Also, while sizes definitely err on the side of smaller, I’m about a full size 12 and found a few things that fit, which is more than I can say about some boutique-y places.
Garment is a great shop to stop by, they have a lot of beautiful pieces - bought a stunning dress!Very reasonably priced!..and Hailey was very helpful too!
