About
Lower East Vintage was founded by visual and narrative storyteller and longtime vintage collector Tatiana Cooper. Drawn to clothing with history, craftsmanship, and character, she approaches sourcing with an editorial eye, seeking pieces that feel as relevant today as when they were first made.
Lower East Vintage is a curated edit of vintage and pre-loved garments, shoes, and accessories. Tatiana sees each piece as a reflection of a moment in culture, design, and personal history. What began as a passion for secondhand shopping, collecting, and visual storytelling has grown into a carefully curated and expanding collection.
Lower East Vintage curates with an eye for distinctive design and quality construction, seeking timeless, iconic silhouettes and exclusive finds that deserve another life. LEV draws inspiration from its namesake, New York City’s Lower East Side, and from observing how clothing is actually worn, moved in, and lived in here, rather than staged.
Every piece is hand-selected, photographed with intention, and prepared for its next owner. Lower East Vintage celebrates the stories clothing already carries, and the new ones still waiting to be written.
