It all begins
Vintage Avoir is born in Middelburg, Zeeland. A small start, and a big love for vintage bags.
ABOUT VINTAGE AVOIR
Hi, I'm Maud.
I started Vintage Avoir because I love fashion, and honestly, bags most of all.
"Not just a bag. A piece of history."
The founder
Our road so far
I studied fashion in Eindhoven, and fashion has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From a young age I knew I wanted to start my own business in fashion one day. Then I came across vintage designer pieces, and I fell in love instantly.
I truly believe a simple outfit can be defined by the bag you carry. It is the detail that completes everything. Today I have turned that love into both my work and my hobby. In every piece I source I check the stitching, the hardware and the little things most people miss, and talking to customers is one of my favorite parts: I like knowing where a bag is going and who is going to wear it.
The road so far
Pop-up in Amsterdam
We pop up in Amsterdam and meet our customers in person.

Two new ways to find your bag: share a wish, or browse the pieces that found a new home.
The next chapter
Every piece is one of a kind. Your piece is next.

Below market, on purpose
I price everything below market value on purpose. I'd rather sell a bag to someone who'll actually wear and love it than sit on it waiting for the highest bidder.
