Our first foray into men's styling, Ray, was inspired by the vision of Ray Petri, the late legendary stylist. We at Vagabond Nyc have always been fond of his mad-cap mix of designer rags teamed with bits of lingerie, athletic basics and under garments to create a strong look that juxtaposed the diverse street scenes of the 1980's. Our take on the era features various finds from our shop that are as disparate in concept from Jean Paul Gaultier bodysuits to a classic Chanel Tuxedo blouse complete with bow, all while trying not to get trapped in that all too literal 80's retro-box designers seem to be getting so into these days.
VagaBond Nyc is stylist Andrea Perini who also runs online vintage boutique VagaBondnyc.com. Perini buys, styles & shoots all the products on the site in order to give vintage clothing a new stance. Perini is a Harvard grad and industry vet who has worked at NewYork Magazine, Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, Elle, Mademoiselle, has done P.R work for various labels & boutiques and was an assistant to stylist Camilla Nickerson. Using her understanding of fashion & art history and contemporary fashion to produce a look that is both arresting & forward.
