We are really excited to welcome Melina from Ceramics by Lina Lav – Overflow Studios to the Vintage Charlotte Summer Market. We are in love with her hand-illustrated dinner sets and hope you will be too!

Melina LaVecchia grew up inspired by fine, Italian cuisine, and her mother’s exquisite taste in setting the table. After graduating with a BFA in Art Education, she uses both the culinary arts and the necessity of dining together as influence for her modern tableware.

Summer Market Vendor Spotlight: Formation Design Studio

Posted by KerenKurti | events, vendor spotlight | No Comments

We are really excited to welcome Amanda from Formation Design Studio to her first Vintage Charlotte market. Amanda’s goal is to design your favorite garments. All of us wanted to wear her effortless, relaxed garments, and we think you will too. Here is Amanda sharing her journey, and what drives her as a designer:

I graduated with a BFA in Fashion Design from Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) in 2005. Soon after I was designing for Urban Outfitters. After many years with the company, I decided to move back home to North Carolina in 2010, continuing to freelance design. It was then that I branched out on my own with Formation Design Studio.

My design aesthetic is influenced heavily by my past design experiences with Urban Outfitters, but I have also tried to brand my line more individually… designing and making more organically. It is important to me that I deliver garments that are long lasting, with quality and edge.
I believe that it is important to understand where and how your garment came to life. My designs are made in small quantities with a non-seasonal approach throughout the year, so each piece is unique and wonderful. There is a dedication to quality and detail in every garment. Each piece is made by me, in my North Carolina studio. Unlike mass production, there is something special about knowing that you have one of just a few pieces made. You and I are part of something that was developed with care, precision, and passion. I want for you to go back to your closet for this “favorite” time and time again.

SOSN Vendor Spotlight: Maliasmark

Posted by VTGCLT | vendor spotlight | No Comments

We are so excited to welcome Maliasmark to Something Old, Something New! Maliasmark will have a selection of vintage and antique items to wear, use as props and decor and even to use for DIY projects. Here is Malia with a little introduction to Maliasmark:

I love junk stores and I was always combing little places on the back roads of South Carolina for my latest decorating finds on the weekends. People always say that they would have never thought to buy that or they wouldn’t know what to do with it. And what can I say, some of the things I like can be downright odd. But I found out there are tons of people like me, that like these things too. So I thought I would share some of these items here! The more I find and use these items, the less tolerance I have for anything new. There is so much already out there just waiting to be discovered, cleaned up, and loved!
