| - If you are a vintage clothing aficionado in the Valley of the Sun, then Antique Sugar is the place for you. Dresses that my Mom used to call "house-dresses" and those that were known as "sun-dresses" line the racks. They have plenty of party dresses - long & short- with bows, ruffles, sequins, and rhinestones in multiple colors and styles. I could have used this resource when I was planning my 20's costume for the Gangster Event. Great Flapper dresses for everyone!
There's an incredible rack of flouncy skirts for those of you who are into the crinolines and layers. Some pencil skirts too. Colors galore!.
[P.S. There is a large section of men's vintage attire. And a rack of unique ties.]
Jewelry, shoes, hats, and lots of vintage accessories are displayed throughout the store. It was such fun to browse. I have my eye on one little black dress that I will return to try on when i have more time . . . and, hopefully, someone else will not have zapped it up! These may not have been one-of-a-kind when they were born, but I'd challenge you to find a look-a-like somewhere else today.
My only disappointment came when I heard that this wonderful shop with all its vintage clothing used to be a few streets west of its current location for years. (They just recently moved to this location) I am so sorry that I didn't find them before. When I tried to look up the reviews it had before, or at least a link to them, I couldn't find anything for the previous shop. It's the same owners, same merchandise, same everything but the walls, ceiling & floors. It would be helpful to know what previous customers had to say about Antique Sugar. Hey, YELP, what gives? Are all those old reviews still available somewhere?
