Fitzroy
Garage & sidewalk sales

Description
A curious phenomenon is taking place in the inner northern suburbs of Melbourne, and perhaps elsewhere. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has noticed the increasing number of swap-meets, garage and sidewalk sales lining the pavements and median strip of these vibrant suburbs. It seems that many Melbournians interested in recycling their worldly goods are opting to cut out the middle man (markets, op-shops and secondhand stores) and sell their wares directly to passing traffic. Obviously the success of any such sale will likely be determined by the level of pedestrian (and bicycle) traffic in the area.

Description
Prepare yourself for the visual onslaught that is My Delirium. Split over two levels this recent addition to Johnston Street is bursting with colour… literary, it’s spilling out onto the pavement. Beyond the glass and metal clad facade you will find an array of women’s clothing, shoes and accessories. The collection is small but sensational and all stock is in great condition.

Description
Being one of the first vintage stores on Smith Street, Sally’s Retro Fashion could be considered a pioneer. This pre-loved store opened its doors some 15 years ago, and has played witness to the transformation of Smith over the past decade and a half. The displays in this store could do with some attention, especially when compared to other secondhand traders in the area. Having said this, the collection itself is solid – gloves, hats, ties, suspenders, bags, belts, jackets, shirts, jumpers, pants, skirts, jewellery, shoes and even bras can all be found at Sally’s Retro Fashion.
