Blackbird Clothes & Curios

Specialties

Blackbird Clothes and Curios brings you interesting Men’s and Women’s clothes from a fashionably twisted point of view that, at the same time, reflect that special «only in Austin» feel of the North Loop area. We love it here!

At our store, you will find a curios collection that showcases art, ephemera, trinkets, and found objects that have pinches of punk, cabaret, steampunk, gothic romance, or are just downright weird.

Our clothes are as close to «one-​of-​a-​kind» at an «artist/​student/​not yet discovered my royal lineage» price as is possible for us to bring you. We work with designers and manufacturers that allow us to order in very small amounts which ensures our customers a personal statement with their choices. You don’t have to worry about seeing your same outfit or piece of jewelry walking down the street or at the same show.
