lubella 1881

Poland) Vintage, 1970s, Lublin

We are currently operating in a pre-scaling phase, during which the scope of our vintage archive has expanded beyond what can be listed at human speed. Only a token fraction of the inventory is visible online, not for lack of supply, but because an inconvenient commitment to perfectionism. The practical solution is to request access to our Google Drive. There is, incidentally, an upside to this arrangement: direct access, special attention, preferred pricing, and quantity-based considerations. New drops are added to the Drive on a daily basis, ensuring ample selection. All that is required is a reference to the image IDs. From there, we provide an elevated level of service: photos edited to approximate reality, additional images, and, where applicable, preferred pricing with quantity-based concessions. Bundles are where the value appears; the more pieces, the more flexible the pricing. After a half-decade sabbatical from fashion, I'm cautiously resurfacing & I felt it was time to reconnect. I moved to Europe a few years ago & began collectsing vintage with the field discipline of an anthropologist & the denial of a high-functioning hoarder. I currently have over 100,000 pieces sitting in a warehouse, because moderation has never been my strong suit. What began as compulsion is now a side project. I'm firmly in the pre-revenue chapter of the memoir - 1,000 sales, & high morale. The broader archive skews larger, stranger, & more historically pointed-East & West German rarities, bureaucratic glamour, Soviet institutional wear, industrial archaeology-rich in Trevira, Diolen, Terylene & mid-century state textile programs, & an elegy in garments from the DACH region & beyond. The collectsion is mostly a Cold War capsule wardrobe, institutional tailoring, state-issued, regional cooperatives & rural ateliers, white labels from the department store era, exceptional knitwear, socialist leathers, the zenith of Parisian fur craft, selectively preserved tweed skirts, rare 1960s mod, exaggerated '70s collars, German-cut blouses, unusually constructed denim, essentially the entirety of the 1970s, when even institutional garments had the decency to be well made. If integrity were woven, you'd find more of it in a 1978 poly-wool blend than in most of today's designer runways. Eventually, this evolves into a full-scale operation-complete with the token NYC storefront for aesthetic credibility. Given that about 70% of you are ordering from New York, it seems reasonable to ship our 50 pallets there & open a labyrinth of "true vintage" to get lost in. Scaling, of course, requires capital. I'm well aware that most of you don't have any, but statistically speaking, out of the millions who drift through here, it is statistically probable that one of you possesses both interest & solvency. Type us into Google. Everything is there, including a contact form. SUNDAZED & OUTSIDE SOCIETY c. 1970s Origin: Poland. Founded: 1881. Lubella comes from Lublin, the city where the company was established. Size Conversion (approximate): US Womens Size: SM EU Womens Size: 3638 One minor clarification seems necessary: "Vintage" tends to imply garments that have endured a meaningful span of wear and tear. To eliminate any potential ambiguity, I'm adding an explicit disclaimer that the majority of these items are, in fact, new, unworn deadstock. This contextual cue should help orient users who are accustomed to encountering authentically fatigued clothes. One additional clarification seems necessary, given the ongoing confusion around U.S. orders from Europe under Trump's tariffs: it's the Europeans taking the hit here, not the Americans. So, to answer the recurring question about U.S. import fees: we've already covered the tariffs through our postal carrier. Your parcel arrives fully cleared; any bureaucratic bloodletting has already been performed on our side of the Atlantic.
