The one that's good for everything!

As you walk down the steps into the giant dressing up box that is Beyond Retro, you are greeted by a soundtrack of 70’s rock and a selection of mannequins showcasing the look of the week, be it Ziggy Stardust Space Attire or Egyptian Lover with an 80’s Edge, (it’s always worth checking out, as the best pieces from the shop are often displayed here.) 

Covering vintage from 1920’s – 1990’s, the good fashion moments & the bad, there’s a big, well ordered selection offering something for everyone, although still remaining edgy. Jumpers, rock t-shirts, 50’s sundresses, kimono’s, sequined jackets, playsuits, party dresses, body con skirts, jeans, leather jackets, shirts, bombshell swimsuits, shoes, boots, belts, trainers…considering the Soho location, everything is surprisingly well priced and good value. Beyond Retro is also a great stop for festival costumes & theme party looks, you can find theatrical pieces to create a unique outfit, rather than going down the obvious fancy dress path.

Loving the latest mannequin display...Grey Gardens, Little Eddie inspired layers!
