ban.do
In June 2008, two adventurous gals from Los Angeles decided to sell handmade vintage headbands. They imagined selling them mostly to their moms and possibly an occasional stranger. In August that same year they launched ban.do and it was, well, a bit of an overnight success. Since then, the brand has grown from a one page website, to a real live accessories company and is on an obvious trajectoru to take over the world (maybe even the universe). www.shopbando.com
October 18
October 18th is a vintage collection of hand picked items for boys, girls and their homes. They love modern design, hip trends and great classics. www.esty.com/shop/october18th
Satsuki Shibuya
Born and raised in the tree-filled foothills of Los Angeles to a French Chef father and adventure-loving mother, her escapades thus far have included studying music at USC and graphic design at Otis, pursuing a career as a singer/songwriter, delving into hand processes such as pattern design and sewing, launching a design studio, as well as raising a dog that loves treats and naps a little too much. Her most recent pursuits have involved activities such as culinary experimentation, zine publication, paper creations & making everyday living goods. http://www.shop.satsukishibuya.com/
Blood is the New Black
Blood is the New Black seeks to propel the careers of emerging artists and support the underground community, all while creating wearable, stylish clothes with a point of view. Founder and curator Mitra Khayyam works with every artist to open up their unique vision to fans of both fashion and the arts who might not otherwise be exposed to their work. www.bloodisthenewblack.com
The Caravan
The Caravan was founded in 2011 by Olivia Lopez and Michael Pagan at a joint effort to alleviate an overflowing vintage wardrobe consisting of unique gunsack dresses from the market stalls in Paris to leatherwear off of Route 66. Inspired by the freedom of the sixties, the antique shops in Europe and old-school Hollywood glamour, they’re constantly on the search for the perfect piece that captures a moment in time. www.shopthecaravan.com
