Maxx Evan, who is studying fashion history, was hoping to find some vintage Prada inside. Cheyenne Grenaway attended the sale with her boyfriend’s mother, Shanda Bontrager, who flew in from Indiana specifically for the sale. They, too, both had specific shopping lists in mind. “I love New York, and I love anything vintage,” says Bontrager, while Grenaway adds, “I’m hoping for some Chanel bags. I’m a vintage addict.”
Carolina Gaillard, who works in fashion and product development, heard about the sale on the Vogue app, and the shopper actually came with bridal fashion on the mind. “I have a wedding coming up that I need a dress for, and I thought it would be fun to go vintage for that,” she says, though she admits that she is keeping her wish-list for a perfect wedding dress relatively open-minded. “Something kind of ’90s or beaded—or something springy and flouncy. There’s a lot of ways I could go.”
Leila Imani, meanwhile, wanted to find a perfect outfit for her upcoming birthday celebration. “It’s my 21st birthday next weekend, and I always wear something red on my birthday,” says Imani. “I did it two years in a row accidentally, and now I made it a thing.”
