Bobby and Dandy

Established in 2006, Bobby and Dandy is a specialist vintage clothing retailer with over 15 years of experience curating unique fashion pieces. Our expertise lies in sourcing original garments from the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, with particular focus on French workwear and American clothing. Recognised as one of East Sussex's premier vintage retailers, we were finalists for the Natwest Venus Awards 'Best Small Business' and featured in prestigious publications including Forbes, Cond Nast Traveller, and The Sunday Telegraph. Our collection has been used in film, theatre, and television productions, most notably in the award-winning series 'Sex Education'. Unlike bulk-buying competitors, we hand-select every item for its exceptional quality, distinctive style, and historical authenticity.

Our knowledgeable team, led by founder Donna Grimaldi with two decades of industry experience, provides expert guidance to both vintage enthusiasts and contemporary fashion lovers. Located in a Grade II listed building in Hastings' historic Old Town, we offer a carefully curated shopping experience that combines historical appreciation with modern styling possibilities. Our commitment to quality extends to our customer service, ensuring every purchase maintains its timeless appeal. We also offer vintage clothing buying services for those looking to sell quality pieces from their collections.
