Retro*Fit Upcycled Clothing & Accessories
Each piece is upcycled from an existing garment or accessory by adding or removing fabric, or embellishing with appliqués, patches or paint. Every item is thoughtfully reworked and given its second life. We hope you find something you love today - but check back often as unique pieces are added as quickly as we can (re)imagine them! If you see something you love that has already sold - let us know! We will try to make a similar item in a size that works for you!
Select Sustainable Brands
We are always on the hunt for sustainable brands whose values align with ours here at Retro*Fit. We think you’ll love the lines we’ve chosen and will continue to add more. These socially conscious lines are recycling materials, upcycling, using ethically sourced materials, employing and empowering women, and giving back to communities in need. Luckily you won’t have to trade your love of beautiful, on trend pieces for being friendly to the earth and people in need.
Select Secondhand Clothing
In addition to our upcycled Retro*Fit clothing and the sustainable brands of new clothing and accessories we carry, we also have some select secondhand clothing that are sold as is, unaltered. Some designer and some that are interesting and perfect just as they are. All of them are worth a look.

What is Slow Fashion?
Clothing has become easy to come by and in many cases, very inexpensive. Great, right?! Well, not really…
