Oxfamvintage
Oxfam Ireland has recently launched dedicated retro clothing departments under the unique 'Oxfam Vintage' brand.
The 'Oxfam Vintage' collection includes pieces from the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's, as well as modern clothing which compliment the range. All of the clothing on sale has been donated to Oxfam, and the money will go to support Oxfam Ireland projects in eleven countries situated in eastern, central and southern Africa .
The range includes accessories such as shoes, bags, belts and jewellery. The retro look has featured on all the catwalks for this spring and summer. Now you have the chance to look good and to do some good at the same time.
Julie Green, the Manager at Oxfam's Castle Street Shop: "'We are very excited about the vintage brand. We are expecting it to be very popular with our existing customers, and hope it will attract people who have never visited the shop before. We have a broad range of clothing on offer to suit everyone. This is a win/win situation, the customer gets fashionable clothing at a bargain price while helping to change the life of someone in need for the better."
"Vintage clothing reminds me of what Jarvis Cocker wears, it's called grandpa or grandma chic. You will always look cool if you're wearing at least one item your grandparents would have worn."
