Vogue’s guide to the best vintage stores in Mexico City is part of our directory of the very best vintage around the world, curated by editors from all over. Whether you’re traveling and searching for some superb stores to visit on your trip or are curious about your local vintage treasure chests, Vogue’s directory has you covered.
Mexico City is known for many things: The Frida Kahlo house, an incredible food scene, and thriving markets that sell vintage clothing and antiques (much like la Lagunilla) are part of the local culture, making a cool vintage scene an obvious cinch. If you don’t know where to start, here’s our list of the best vintage stores in Mexico City, curated with the help of our Vogue Mexico editors.
Erre Vintage
Customers like Andre 3000 and Shawn Mendes come to this Mexico City shop for unexpected athleisure from bygone eras—like ’70s terrycloth tennis sets or ’90s Just Do It memorabilia—as well as traditional pieces of Mexican fashion history. The traditional belt buckles and embroidered tops with historical motifs are especially striking.
Address: Colima 100, Roma Nte., Cuauhtémoc, 06700 Ciudad de México, CDMX
Goodbye Folk
Trucker hats, soft jean jackets, and Carhartt to the max: Goodbye Folk has three floors filled with everything you’d want to wear in your model-off-duty era, with the pain of breaking in already done for you.
Address: Córdoba 55, Roma Nte., Cuauhtémoc, 06700 Ciudad de México, CDMX
La Lagunilla Market
This street market is a must for any collector, ogler, or admirer of vintage clothing or homeware. Open every Sunday morning, individual booths are overflowing with everything from small trinkets to leather jackets and even pieces of midcentury-modern furniture. Our advice is to pick up a snack from one of the many food vendors on the way in and come prepared to dig—you’ll want to stay a while.
Address: González Bocanegra 66, Morelos, Cuauhtémoc, 06200 Ciudad de México, CDMX
XOLO Vintage
Located in the basement of a barber shop, the vintage wares of XOLO were once worn on a glamorous night out—and are waiting for you to take them out again. Fringe snakeskin boots, full-body lace unitards, biker jackets in all sorts of disarray, and silver sequined tops are just some of the items waiting to rave again.
Address: Monterrey 159, Roma Nte., Cuauhtémoc, 06700 Ciudad de México, CDMX
