I search for items that have history, like vintage finds - I love fur kitten-heel house slippers from the 1950s - and pieces from fashion houses that have been around for a long time, like Chanel and Dior.

Junk stands and antique markets are the perfect place to pick up clues about the history of a country, region or town.

I tend to like antique things. Something can be old, but it can be timeless.

I love history... everything is inspired by history, so that's why I love vintage and antiques.

I quite like antiques. I like things that are old and the history they bring with them. I would rather fly to Morocco on an $800 ticket and buy a chair for $300 than spend $1,100 on one at Pottery Barn.

My mom passed on her obsession of all things antique or vintage. I love to go thrift store shopping or explore any sort of garage sale. Treasure hunting is a family passion.

When I look at some of my old work, the pieces I find most interesting are the ones with people in them.

I grew up around old stuff that was not necessarily valuable, but certainly unusual.

I shop at a lot of vintage stores because the prices are amazing, and I love the idea that there's a history behind the piece I'm wearing.
