Incredibly curated vintage shop with high quality and often couture pieces. Plenty of shops are full of 90s tee shirts, this one has Parisian cashmere, Italian leather, and more. Just stunning.

I needed a special dress for my 30th birthday party just 3 days before (no time to order something or get it altered) and went straight to Moore. Keesean pulled a bunch of options for me and I left with this insane, one of a kind sequin gown that, according to legend, came from the closet of a mysterious starlet. It fit like a glove. I felt so special wearing this dress. Thank you, Keesean!!!

Moore Vintage Archive is a treasure trove for fashion lovers—not just a vintage shop, but a meticulously curated collection of rare and archival designer pieces. Every item feels intentionally selected, with a mix of avant-garde, high fashion, and timeless classics that make it a dream for collectors and enthusiasts alike. I finally got my hands on an archive Issey Miyake Fête piece I’d coveted since seeing it on the runway, and it was absolutely perfect for a special event this month. No other retailer in the U.S. (that I know of) carries as much Issey Miyake as Moore does, and knowing this is my business! Their selection of iconic and hard-to-find designer pieces is next-level. You’ll find everything from Comme des Garçons to Celine to YSL to Yohji Yamamoto, with an emphasis on wearable art and innovative design. The space itself is intimate and inviting, making for a shopping experience that feels both personal and inspiring. If fashion is your business —editors, stylists, artists, managers— you need to know about this place. It should be in your arsenal of spots to check out, especially during awards season! It’s the kind of place where every visit uncovers something new, and if you love fashion history and statement pieces, it’s dangerously good.

Moore Vintage is my favorite vintage store ever. Their collection is impeccably curated - many top designers. The shop feels like a perfect blend of a museum and a cozy living room. Some of my all-time favorite pieces come from here—I find something to love every time I visit. The team is very sweet and knowledgeable.

One of the best vintage stores in philly. Exceptionally curated, timeless pieces from sought after designers. Better yet is the owner, Keesean Moore, who is simply a lovely person. He’s knowledgeable, stylish, and always on location to help you put looks together and try out pieces. It’s such a gorgeous, cozy little spot with a friendly atmosphere. Definitely stop by play dress up if you’re in the neighborhood!!
