UNVAGUE IS AN E-MARKET OF VINTAGE AND SECOND HAND APPAREL AND ACCESSORIES, INSPIRED BY OVER TWENTY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE WORLD OF FASHION AND PHOTOGRAPHY.
A space where vintage is recounted with all the attention and care generally reserved for the brand new, through an archive of unique garments, unveiled by a photographic choice that draws inspiration from models of the past, to enhance the product in all its nuances.
The looks presented in these pages pay tribute to designers who have made history, evoking atmospheres and alluding to possibilities. Here, garments and accessories created with care and mastery are drawn into a contemporary vision.
Iconic and unforgettable items, with a beautiful story just waiting to be (re)lived.
UNVAGUE is FREEDOM
UNVAGUE is freedom and fusion, imagination and possibility. A space created so that you can express yourself and nurture your passion for fashion. Here, identity is manifold and there is no such thing as incoherence. You can transcend borders and experience new styles, or simply wander back and forth between the classic and cutting-edge, until perhaps you stumble across something that represents you like nothing else. So that you can dress yourself in timeless ideas and forms. And find the answers you didn't even know you were searching for.
UNVAGUE is EXPERIENCE
We imagine you browsing through the pages of UNVAGUE: perhaps you cannot feel the warmth of the paper, but soon you are caught up in an intimate and immersive reading experience, in a flourish of images, shapes and fabrics.
And then suddenly there it is. It hits you like a revelation. Because the garment you have chosen has a story that makes it special. Penned and brought to life by great artists to express an idea, it has fought for its principles and revolutionized common aesthetics to form a watershed moment, a before and after. This is why it’s part of the UNVAGUE archive, where the art of purchasing vintage and second hand apparel is transformed into an experience that is thrilling, instinctive and within everyone's reach.
UNVAGUE IS COMPETENCE
The UNVAGUE team is made up of photographers, fashion enthusiasts, professionals from the world of vintage, tailoring and editorial communications. We are all driven by the desire to spread a vision of beauty and fashion that is inspired by the qualitative, aesthetic and social codes of the past, with particular attention to designers who have placed art before status, revolutionizing the concept of fashion. Indelible perspectives, translated in a selection of garments just waiting to be worn, reinterpreted and cherished. Until the next generation..
UNVAGUE IS SUSTAINABILITY
UNVAGUE is not about taking it all, rather it is about taking a position. Fast, everywhere and everyone is not what we are about. We prefer unique to universal, niche to mass, striving so that attention can prevail over indifference. We want guilt-free beauty that stands the test of time, which is why we support slow and environmentally-friendly fashion, with quality fabrics, sustainable packaging and garments or accessories that still have a story to tell.
UNVAGUE IS CREATIVITY
Creativity is the lens through which we interpret and draw reality. An open dialogue between fashion and the capacity of photography to turn it into a story, building dream-like scenarios around bold and visionary sartorial works. After all, for those like us, the act of wearing something has nothing to do with vanity, rather it is the ultimate means of communication with others. An operation of everyday creativity that turns abstractness into concreteness and substance into form, layer after layer.
UNVAGUE IS PRESENCE
UNVAGUE is also a travelling project you can find at vintage and second-hand markets in Italy and beyond. We have been here for some time, but only now we have decided to give ourselves a name and create a new digital habitat. Because the time has come to change things, explore possibilities, cross geographic and symbolic borders, by developing new spaces of interpretation for a world of knowledge and know-how that deserves to be presented.
UNVAGUE IS CULTURE
We always knew that UNVAGUE would have to look beyond the product, introducing and stimulating reflections on certain topics, including those linked to more symbolic aspects of fashion. This is why we have created UNVAGUE MAGAZINE, the object through which we build and nurture a dialogue with our eager and creative readers. We see our ideal reader as someone with a malleable identity, in a constant state of flux and just like us, someone who thrives on freedom and fusion.
