I'm a sucker for lists, moodboards & mindmaps so it comes to no surprise that I always have a never-ending and dynamically changing wishlist. (Leo moon, oops)
DISCLAIMER: This is by no means a call to blind-buy everything you liked for a hot second, just my two cents on the dynamic cycles of vintage clothing and the thrill it gives me.
So, to avoid hoarding, there is a bi-weekly clean-out happening, because;
A.) I'm not super attached B.) Fuck a capsule collection
I'm sorry, but I don't even know how my moods going to look like in the next three hours, so how am I supposed to choose from a small pool of things that match perfectly? I don't want them to match, I want them to be extra.
The wishlist is unrealistic and mostly consists of items that are extremely rare or simply out of my budget — but it keeps me inspired and always researching for alternatives.
So here is my current Fall/Winter 2025 wishlist.
Prada F/W 2014 Peekaboo Bra Coat as seen on @Resurrection → This coat has everything I’m looking for in autumn pieces: rich tone, high-quality materials, and a hint of glamour. Unfortunately, it's a very rare piece and probably hidden away in some Italian grandma’s closet for the next 10 years — before I actually get my hands on it.
----- Prada Sport S/S 2000 Mesh Shirt as seen on @Side By Side → I never managed to find this exact shirt — only different colorways and, of course, never in my size. But the baby-blue/burgundy combo caught my eye, so you might see me styling layered versions, e.g. a baby-blue puff-sleeve blouse mixed with a burgundy zip tank.
-----
Miu Miu A/W2006 - Damask & Brooch Cap as seen on @NineTwoFive → I love hats. Every season. This cap is probably the epitome of stylishness one can achieve with a hat as an accessory.
But I’m not willing to spend more than €150 on one, so I’ve been adding brooches to all my hats lately, and so far it’s giving me the desired effect.
-----
Miu Miu - Patent Leather Boxing Boots as seen on Vestiare Collective → I don’t need a second pair of boxing boots, but these just scratch my brain the right way. I already own Adidas Japan boots and my absolute best buy ever: the Kiko Kostadinov Bow Boots.
These Miu Miu’s look like a love child between those two pairs. Does that justify buying them? No. Will I still actively look for them? Yes.
-----
Vintage Leather "Firkin" Bag as seen on @NineTwoFive → I’ve always been more of a shoe girl, so I never paid super much attention to bags — but lately, I’ve been sourcing leather firkin bags for the shop and during my research, I stumbled upon styles that really made me want one too.
-----
Patricia Field Leather Bag as seen on @The Devil Wears Prada → Speaking of vintage leather bags, this one has lived rent-free in my head since I first saw Andy Sachs carrying it in The Devil Wears Prada. BUT IT IS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND. So I decided to turn it into a little DIY project with my mother.
-----
Comme des Garcons A/W2012 Silk Skirt with Ruffles as seen on @Velvetknife → Still regretting not buying this skirt in 2023 and now it's still on my wishlist. BUT I found some nice alternatives for me on Vinted and Ebay.
-----
Dries Van Noten - Santal Greenery Eau De Parfum → Smelled this one in KaDeWe and kept the strip for 6 weeks. But I have a good rotation at the moment, rotating between my signature smell "Bois Imperial" by Quentin Bish and the "Jazz Club - Fragrance in a Bottle" by Margiela. And since I've been gifted the Margiela "Autmn Vibes" too, I`m well-equipped with perfumes at the moment. One Day, though.
