Vintage vibes in Helsinki

Part 2, where Tiia and I talk about her store, current state of 2nd hand shopping and a look into the future

“The second hand and vintage market is tumultuous right now. Consumer-to-consumer sales and international bulk vendors are overrunning traditional vintage sellers, and consumers are frantically buying vintage with a fast fashion mentality that focuses on cheap prices. What’s lost in the convenience of it all is expertise and reliability.”

• How do you recover; re-bounce from a gloomy space and market reality like this?

• How do you turn things around in your business and your life to continue staying true to your values but also making a living for yourself and your family?

This is the continuation of my recent conversation with Tiia, from Sunday Style Thoughts.
