About Hand Picked Vintage

Hand Picked Vintage was started by Katy after years of admiring, buying and collecting just about anything and everything Vintage (well 1980’s or before!).
 
Katy was brought up going to jumble sales, charity shops, markets and car boot sales in the UK and abroad. From this weekend pastime, a hobby developed, which has become a way of life.
 
With her degree in Textiles from Nottingham Trent University and having worked for many major fashion retailers, in theatre, print and costume design, she is also a dab hand with a needle and thread herself.
 
Katy loves nothing more than a good old fancy dress party, dancing in a field with friends to an eclectic mix of music and that feeling of finding that next Handpicked Vintage treasure.
 
This website was set up by a way of sharing all the Vintage things Katy has lovingly Hand Picked for you.
