Flamingo Vintage - Detroit (MI)

1 /5 Brian M: My review is regarding my customer service experience only-not the shop. All of this began on October 3rd. I emailed the shop, and asked if they were interested in taking a look at a small vintage collection I have (I had found out that they travel within a certain radius if you can’t bring stuff in to them). They took a look at some pictures and said they’d like to set up something for next week. I immediately responded and it’s been 12 days since that last email (I also followed up via calling the shop). What is going on in retail? A 30 second response would have sufficed. Professionalism and polite thoughtfulness goes a long way.

5 /5 Laura M: I am happy to say I found my new favorite vintage store in the US! I work onboard cruise ships and shop vintage all over the world (over a hundred countries and every continent logged). This has now stolen the top spot from a boutique in New Zealand. This gorgeous shop has such amazing finds that I spent almost 2 hours and if I didn’t have to go back to work I would have spent longer because I’m sure I missed some amazing finds. Pricing is more than fair on great quality pieces. It’s also visually beautiful with everything sorted by colors and then sizes. I’m most impressed with the assortment of size ranges. Usually, my favorite eras of the 1940-1960’s are so small that it’s hard for me to find anything. Today I found 3 stunning dresses, 2 blouses, 1 sweater, 3 incredible vintage hats, 2 pairs of gloves and 1 gorgeous necklace/bracelet set. And Connor, behind the amazing counter that belonged to the original haberdashery that was at this location, was fun to chat with. (Thank you Connor!) It’s nice to have someone passionate about vintage. I didn’t go thru the men’s selection but it did look like a nice selection as well. I will for sure be back to this gem of a shop the next time I’m in town!!

5 /5 Sheryl Baggett: If youre in the area and you love vintage and nostalgia, you have to stop in!! A great old shop on Vernor, a few doors from Holy Redeemer. The building itself is like going back in time. They carry vintage clothes, shoes, even Western vintage. There are hats and purses, buttons and stickers. Lots of Detroit themed items and unique finds!

5 /5 Vanaja Pernankil: Wonderful experience, a great selection and the employee working was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me and my partner find the high waisted pants hes been looking for. I didnt catch the employees name but im really grateful to them.

3 /5 kate hicks: Shop was just ok. Went in to try on a dress they have listed currently on the website for sale and was told it was already sold. Still shopped around to check everything out. Shop is very dark inside. Could use some better lighting. Did not end up purchasing anything but still glad I made the drive to see what was up with this little shop. Trucker hat made me laugh
