The House of VerMillions Archive is the result of more than three decades of obsessive vintage collecting—a love letter to the way clothes carry our cultural history woven in their very threads. Pieces have been gathered across five continents- creating a collection that reflects the many ways fashion represents the intersection of a specific time, culture, environment and craft.

Spanning the 1920s through the 1980s, the archive is rich in 1930s and 1940s knitwear, 1940s cold-rayon novelty prints, and couture cocktail and evening wear from the 1930s through the 1970s. Among it’s treasures are gorgeously embroidered 1930s pieces from Shanghai, 1940s Peruvian woolen knit outerwear and early 1950s New Look silhouettes rendered in Indo-Australian indigenous made textiles. Each garment offers its own glimpse into a particular moment, culture, or craft tradition.

HoV offers a rotating selection of rare and unusual vintage pieces for your perusal during regular business hours at The Huckleberry House. If you’re on the hunt for a Holy Grail, looking for a decade-specific deep dive, or just wanting to play dress-up in the archive,  Private Vintage Shopping Appointments are the party you didn’t know you’ve been missing.

For special occasions, a selection of vintage pieces is also available for rental, allowing these extraordinary babes to have a life outside the archive.
