The Brooklyn Circus - Combing Vintage and Modern in Menswear

When I shop for vintage, either for myself or the shop, I get the biggest rush out of finding men's vintage clothing. It's rare! Men in general don't purchase as much clothing as we ladies do. And you know how men love to wear things out until they are falling apart.

I recently came across this label and store, The Brooklyn Circus. Their whole mantra is to bring the old to the modern. They don't won't to live in the past, but they certainly draw from it. From using vintage circus posters as inspiration for T-shirt graphics to images of dandies in tweed ensembles.

I love how they add small bits of modern edge to clothing designs that are as beautiful now as they were back then. They have an excellent eye for style. These clothes are dapper yet still masculine. I could definitely see Mr. Debutante in that tweed cap. Check them out.
