Miscellany Thrift & Vintage is based in Vancouver, B.C. We specialize in vintage pieces and your favourite street and high-end brands such as Artizia, Tommy Hilfiger, Oak and Fort, and many more. We hand pick all of our clothing to find the most unique pieces for our store and website. We steam everything before it hits the floor and make sure all pieces are kept in perfect condition.
We have worked with some amazing charities and community groups over the last 10 years, such as Vancouver Rape Relief, Transition Houses, and Food Banks.
Here at Miscellany Thrift & Vintage, we believe that the clothes we wear have the power to create change. We believe that thrifting is more than just finding an amazing deal on your favourite brands or designers. It’s about shopping with intention and rejecting the fast fashion culture and opting for sustainability. Styling yourself from the inside out!

What do we do?
We are proud to provide high-quality name brand and vintage clothing, jewelry, houseware and home décor to local and International customers. While we are a for profit business, it is equally important to us that we give back to our community. We work closely with charities that support safety and equitable living in the Vancouver community, we donate to local elementary schools and local businesses because when our community thrives, we feel good. We are grateful to share the work of local Artisans and carry work from the lower mainland such as handmade soaps, jewellery & art cards.
What matters to us?
It is really important to us that there is a space where everybody feels welcome in an inclusive space, and that we cultivate and maintain a community vibe. There is always good music playing and big smiles to greet you. You can spend as little as five minutes in the shop and find an absolute gem, or spend an hour gathering a pile of amazing pieces for incredible prices! At Miscellany we are intentional about community connection, equitability, access, RRR, upcycling, repurposing, affordable quality clothing, and access. It matters to us that we truly Belong to a community and that you feel part of that when you come in.

Owner is really rude in sugar coated way. She insulted me too often by implying I’m stupid. I really liked the store but wont go as I dont wanna traumatize myself further with random owner scolds.

A little gem of a store with a gem of an owner to match! She treats every single customer with respect and is extra empathetic with customers who are battling difficult circumstances. Just a really sweet business that I feel good about supporting.

I have been a lifetime thrift shopper. To call Miscellany a gem would be an understatement. Beautiful clothing and goods, restocked and updated on a daily basis. Excellent pricing and discounts. The owner, Zainab has a heart of gold. Not only does she have a gorgeous shop and offer wonderful service, but she truly knows how to connect with her customers. Love this place, and love Zainab dearly!

The shop is small but has a good selection, and the owner was super friendly and helpful! I went home with some reasonably priced items (~ $15-25 for tops). Would be great if there was a second changeroom, but it was no problem when I went.

Great staff, but unfortunately the prices have gotten out of control. $20 for a random crop top, $75 for a polyester jacket, and $50 for a glass bowl (not even crystal though that's even too much)?

The woman working there was so so kind, asked me how my day was. Has beautiful items, and it's a cozy little warm store with friendly staff and great selection. Would absolutely recommend.

My friend was buying her clothes here recently and I ended up appreciating the store as well because I saw a lot of super affordable items and I ended up buying some for myself. I like their tops and I found their dresses adorable too but I rarely wear skirts or dresses so I bought tops.

Great shop with a good mix of vintage and newer brands. I got a Lululemon merino shirt there a few years ago in mint condition that i wear constantly, and have found many treasures there since. I'm thrilled to see this place has stuck around and that vintage and thrift culture is holding strong in East Van! This one has stood the test of time and the owner is lovely. They also have a great Instagram page and online store.

One of my favourite thrift/ vintage shops in Van! The owner is super friendly and has impeccable taste. The store is well curated and reasonably priced. I love how it not only has clothing but also stocks cute glassware, dishes, and other household items. Definitely worth a visit.

Lovely place, staff is super helpful, clothing and stock is VERY VERY high quality. Store is very tidy and accessible. Staff is very inclusive and open to the LGBTQ2 community. I've been able to find many plus size garments that are amazing quality. I cant say enough good things about the store. Ohhhh... Business owner is very supportive of local artisans.. Thanks for making our community great !

I often find that thrift stores profits and contributions benefit the business and circle around its own company but the manager let me know that she supports local woman in recovery. Very admirable. Also fun stuff in this place!

Perfect mix of a “curated thrift store” and traditional donation based thrift store. Owner is wonderful! Lots of quality brands. I dug through some bins and found 3 perfect condition lululemon tanks for $4-6 each. Also scored an adorable Aerie mid-calf dress with original tags for $20. I will be back!

This woman is a SCAMMER!!! This is THE WORST experience I've ever had from a consignment store! My mom came in to look at a dress in the window. The woman that runs this store LIED and convinced my mom that this was a huge brand name dress. Which it is absolutely not. Never heard of or seen that brand. Nor is it high quality by any means. So it was 23 dollars or whatever. My mom not knowing anything about fashion. Thought. Great deal right. Came home. And 3 of 6 buttons had been ripped off. So she went to return it thinking no big deal. And this woman was extremely rude. Insisting my mom only get store credit. My mom asked if she could return another day (as she was on her way to work) but this woman demanded that she had to pick something right then and there. I called to speak to her over the phone and had the worst customer service experience in my life. Don't spend your money here!!!!

Prices are up and down, but occasionally you find a really good deal. Clothing is almost always in great condition, albeit very small. The best part is the back room, which looks like how you'd picture a grandpa's storage room full of old trinkets. Staff is always really nice.
