Etsy is a great source for traditional craftsmanship—case in point, you'll find many Ukranian brands specialising in the kind of needlework boho dresses that usually cost a fortune when translated into luxury designer sites. We'll snap these up ahead of next summer.
If you're looking for the coolest "new" vintage denim, head over to this Austin-based treasure trove of Levi's in every possible wash. Finish off your new pair with an impossibly cool T-shirt from the '80s or '90s and you'll be convinced you've just found your new one-stop shop.

Look no further for unique, remixed denim than this unexpected line created by Ukrainian stylist Yana Golub. She repurposes Levi's and Lee pieces to create one-of-a-kind styles, never repeating any models.

'80s Satin Slipper Mules (£28)
