Ready for a throwback to the 1960s //1970s //1980s?! I LOVED this store and when you’re looking for designer pieces, you can certainly find some here. I saw an amazing Max Mara overcoat, which, sadly, was too large for me — but I hope it finds a rightful owner. That coat deserves it! The shop is filled with all sorts of clothing and accessoires you can imagine, even memorabilia and pieces they don’t sell but are on display. Great inspirational stuff I can tell you! When you’re looking for an original & wearable piece or if you have a dressing-up party, you can definitely find it here. The ‘flower power’ garments, the 70s onepieces, the 80s neon prom dresses and velcrooooo! Something worth mentioning: they sell a lot of bags and GOOD ones! So if you’re looking for a new(leather) purse or very nifty handbags, go and have a look!

After wandering a little, I found this store. It is on a street with other vintage shops but stands out by far. The shop itself is decorated impeccably by the owner’s kitsch-obsessed wife. There are unique pieces like Daffy Duck bell bottoms and countless designer vintage items. Everything is reasonably priced, though some pieces are not for sale. The store is like a costume shop and a playground. The owner, Elio, is incredibly friendly and cooky in the most charming way. He shared his love of Fellini and brought out pieces he thought would look good on my friend and I. We all drank wine and played dress up! He suggested an orange 1980s Valentino dress that fit me like a glove and nearly gave it to me. One of my favorite parts of my trip to Rome!

There are a lot of vintage clothing stores on Via del Governo Vecchio. Overall, Vestiti Usati Cinzia has the best inventory of 1950s thru 70s clothing and accessories. Their selections are more on the classy side and you can easily find something you like that will work with anything in your closet. Don’t think you will find a lot of designer brand items here but everything at this store is very unique and well kept. Don’t forget to bargain or get a freebie small accessory while you are making a purchase.
