Well, the universities are back, so it’s no surprise to see the return of the Affordable Vintage Fashion Fair.
Except this isn’t a student-only event – anyone is welcome to browse the 40+ stalls selling vintage clothing from the 1930s to the 1980s. And if you head to the Sheffield event, there’s also a vintage clothes swap, where you can exchange the clean/wearable vintage items you’re bored of for anything else that catches your eye (as long as you grab it before anyone else).
Read over the page for dates, addresses and time details for October’s events. Admission is never more than £2 and if you want a stall (or just want to find out more), check out the website
