Lazaruk, who is also an interior designer and owner of Wicket Blue Interiors, was first approached by Vignettes founder Leigh Wright in August 2021 about the possibility of joining this year’s lineup with an installation for Tipsy Palm. “We’re still growing our businesses, so it’s a really interesting opportunity for us,” says Lazaruk. A date for a fashion show will be announced soon. Vignettes will host events throughout the Brick & Mortar Festival to drive traffic to the storefronts, and Las Vintage plans to host its own in-shop events on fashion-related topics such as sewing and repurposing. “Look to the left and it’s 1959 look to the right and it’s 1989.” The delineation between the two vintage shops is unmissable, says Varrin. A shared 2,000-square-foot space houses Las Vintage and Alexander & Rose, a mid-century-modern vintage decor and fashion shop.
