    um... I'm from SF & NY and THOUGHT I'd been to some of the best vintage stores in the world but this place is absolutely TOP NOTCH!

    You will find what you're looking for here - without a doubt! For dress up like Halloween, I was like a kid in a candy shop. And as Gov Schwarzeneggar says, "I'll be back!"

    So I went on my virgin vintage shopping trip last weekend, hitting 4 stores, and I really liked this one. I didn't buy anything, but I'm not really sure what I was expecting and was a little overwhelmed looking through the racks. I'm so picky about clothes that the chances I will find something I like on the rack that is in my size AND looks good on me is SLIM. That said, I will definitely stop back in and browse next time I'm on Morgan Ford.

    This place was very cute.  Oddly the largest section of the store is rentals, so was unaccessible.  The rest of the selection was small, well curated & priced ok.  Seems like everything was hand picked & in really great condition.  I would definitely check it out again.

    Really amazing store!

    My friend Lindsay suggested I check them out when I told her I needed a 1920s flapper dress for a party. I had previously purchased a dress that would have done the trick from a popular vintage-inspired clothing website but I decided I'd check out this store's selection and boy I'm glad I did. The entire "left" half of the store is rental only and they have so much amazing stuff. Real zoot suits. Real and reproduction dresses. Cute hats and fascinators, most of which are originals!

    Yes, I was in clothing heaven. And I didn't even really fully browse their for-sale selection yet. I plan to return (well I have to anyway to pick up my rental dress!) but in the meantime I will dream of their beautiful vintage selection and look forward to my next trip! :D

    Also the store girl was really sweet and helpful when I forgot my hat in the changing room and had to drive back for it. Haha! :)

    This place is a ton of fun!  Any filmmakers/students in the area should keep this place in mind for costumes as you can rent or buy.  The Vintage Haberdashery has a TON of costumes from as early as the 1800s, and goes up to the 1980s.  Therefore, if you need a costume, or - like me - are just a bit strange, you should definitely check this place out for all your old-time clothing needs.  

    Everything is clean and it's not real dusty in this cute little shop.  The staff is friendly and willing to help should you need them.  They carry both men and women's clothing, plus accessories.

    Love. A variety of well-maintained vintage stock, great prices, and wonderful staff. They are always getting in new pieces and the staff is always very helpful. They will spend a lot of time helping you find the right clothing and accessories for the look you are going for. So, if you need a costume, highly recommended! When they didn't have something I needed they even referred me to another store. Anyway, check it out I'm sure you will find something!!

    Fun selection of clothing 40s-80s to buy plus a huge rental section.  Keep it in mind if you're on the look out for fun vintage. Some items were pricey, but there were deals to be found including a great 80s sparkle dress for my hipster costume ($20), a 40s style cocktail dress ($25), and an irresistible-y ridiculous faux leather vest ($10).  

    Good times were had.

    Wow, I had no idea this place just moved...I thought it closed...The point is, I was obsessed with The Vintage Haberdashery as a young child.  Living over on Pestalozzi, I used to walk to this place at the age of 10.  The owner helped me pick out numerous Halloween costumes over the years (I remember being Groucho Marx, a Bobby Soxer, and a majorette).

    Good to know the Haberdashery is still open.  I'll definitely make a stop in on my next trip back to St. Louis!

    I found a bright salmon pink polyester Lacoste dress here(see photo in profile). In perfect condition for something manufactured around the time Nixon was in office. Every time I wear it, I get stopped and complimented ridiculously often, and someone tried to buy it off me once. This place is seriously worth your time if you're an avid vintage shopper. It's vintageous!

    A bit pricier than the competition, but worth browsing for a collection that's been more carefully selected.

    the haberdashery is a fun little shop with reliable service. the selection and quality are both fairly consistent as far as vintage shops go, though some selections are unpleasantly kitsch. it's definitely one of saint louis's top places to visit if you're looking for unique costuming.

    I'd give them 6 stars if I could!!! It probably seemed even better since I came here right after a horrific experience at Remember Me or whatever it was called (ironically, not sure I remember the name). What a pleasant shopping experience! It was a rainy day and I escaped into this beautiful world for a number of hours. I don't want to butcher the spelling of her name, b/c I'm not sure, but the sweetest, loveliest girl works there and was so helpful. The shop doesn't smell like the vintage shops that are off-putting to the non-vintage devotees. The store is well organized. The items are all quality, and tons of my favorite eras (30s-50s). I hit the mother lode here and found the prices all incredibly reasonable! Anyone who kvetches about pricing hasn't gotten on ebay lately. I got some fantastic dresses that I am mad in love with! It was like an enjoyable afternoon amongst friends. I can't wait to come back to St. Louis to visit here again! What a pleasure. This shop is up there with Elizabeth's of Louisville and I'm adding it to my list of favorite vintage resources. muaa, ladies!
