East of Downtown (Houston) or “Eado” as it’s referred to, has just gotten a wonderful new addition to the neighborhood- Eado Vintage. The shop is located at the corner of Polk and Dumble Streets. The owner, Jennifer Rowland has always been a fan of fashion and appreciates the better quality that vintage has to offer. She had gone to Houston Community College to do fashion design, but found that it wasn’t going to pay the bills. She met up with a friend one day, who introduced {Jennifer} to the world of Etsy. Jennifer soon realized that having an Etsy and doing local markets was working for her, so she built a small 12′ x 8′ shop behind her house to aid in spreading out her growing inventory. It wasn’t soon after, when she decided to get the space where she is now and delve into being a brick-n-mortar.

Eado Vintage offers a large variety of clothing and accessories options for women, men and children. Jennifer has a great eye for bright and unique pieces, as well as designer (such as: Oscar de la Renta and Zandra Rhodes).

When asked about her aesthetic, she explained, “I worked at HCC fashion collection for a couple of years cataloging and repairs. I have some things from late 1800s to early 1900s, but mostly I have 40s through 80s. The 90s is a trend now but I don’t really consider it vintage. I do have few things 90s just because I came across them. I feel like I shop for a world market so I look for interesting design, unusual fabrics, great construction. May not be something I would wear but I can see somebody wearing it. I love great vintage designer clothing. I really appreciate the quality and craftsmanship of the older clothes. Made to last…”

So not only can you find incredible threads that no one else has, you can also find some cool home decor and fabrics as well. Prices vary, ranging from $5 to $1,250, so there’s something for everyone!
