We are a vintage and secondhand clothing store with a decade-inspired costume hire section. Since 2008 we’ve enjoyed meeting customers of all walks of life, looking for all sorts of vintage garb for many an occasion with that point of difference. Our shop has a vintage vibe and hopefully displays our passion for promoting sustainability, uniqueness, comfort, and general nostalgic party dressing up.
Lucy in Disguise is a play on words from the Beatles song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds (and I can’t tell you how many times we’ve enjoyed the outbursts of renditions of the tune from people walking through New Arcade past the shop). The disguise part refers to being in costume. Themed parties are our favourite, and we love finding you a costume as your disguise for the night. Popular disguises are a 1920s flapper, a Woodstock hippie, a disco dancer, a 60s gogo goer, and an 80s prom queen.
Except for our costume section tucked behind curtains, clothes and accessories are for sale, and clothes hang predominantly in colour order. We have found it too difficult to hang in size order, as vintage clothes are often sized in old-fashioned sizes, and some secondhand clothes have had their tags cut off or faded over time. Often different shapes and sizes fit into one size, so we always recommend you try the item on, and check for fit under our change room area chandelier.
Proud of our low and competitive prices, there’s no need to bargain at our shop as the lowest price has always been placed on an item, and gets even lower at discount time. A few things in store are a bit old school, but we like that old school charm. Our bookwork is paper-driven, however we do have EFTPOS as well as cash for your shopping convenience.
