The charming historic inner suburb of Paddington is Brisbane’s mecca for vintage, retro and op shopping with 11 fantastic shops in walking distance of each other.
Take the trail starting from Given Terrace and all the way along Latrobe Terrace (with a detour to Rosalie Village) and spend a day hunting for treasures, with plenty of cool cafes for a stop along the way:
Start the treasure hunt on Given Terrace, where tucked away upstairs in a 1980’s commercial centre you’ll find Encore La Chance, designer consignment store where you could pick up anything from an Oroton 80’s handbag to Miu Miu shoes or a 90’s evening gown.
This quirky boutique stocks a mix of preloved designer brands and vintage finds, from coats and frocks to shoes and bags.
An old Queensland cottage with polished timber floors has been converted into Brisbane’s most stylish op shop .
Occupying the front rooms of a charming Paddington cottage (that has Barbarella Vintage underneath) is this fantastic shop of quality pre-loved fashion.
