24 Hour VIRTUAL VINTAGE fair Wednesday 12 August, from 7pm
Thank you to everyone who’s visited one of the So Last Century Virtual Vintage Fairs we’ve been holding regularly on Sundays since the end of March. We’re regularly featuring about 40 vintage dealers, exhibiting over 150 vintage items on our Instagram Stories. Each fair has been attracting an average of about 50,000 total views.
As real fairs and markets gradually start opening up again, and while there are increasing activities available to people at the weekends, we've decided to move our Virtual Fairs to Wednesday evenings starting at 7pm. We hope this will make it easier for even more of you to visit!
We’re working hard putting plans in place to hold real vintage events again soon, but in the meantime why not join us again for our next virtual fair on 12 August, on Wednesday evening, from the comfort of home.
It’s easy to visit - just tune in to our Instagram Stories from 7pm onwards (tap the big circular button with our logo in the top left-hand corner of your screen). The fair’s live for 24 hours, so there’s plenty of time to call in and have a look.
Who will be featured?
You’ll see vintage items from many of your favourite So Last Century dealers, and some new ones as well.
What can I expect to find?
Original 60s posters, prints and art, antique maps, mid-century decor, lighting, furniture, homeware, brocante, salvage, vintage fashion, accessories, jewellery, and a whole lot more.
We look forward to you joining us on Instagram at 7pm for more exciting Virtual Vintage discoveries!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The idea is very simple...
For Visitors:
From 7pm BST on Wednesday 12 August, click on our Instagram Stories @solastc (the big circle with our logo, top left on your screen).
Items for sale by vintage traders will be shared here from 7pm, and the event will be ‘live’ for 24 hours. It’ll be available for even longer in our Highlights.
If you see something you like, contact the Trader directly to buy or to ask a question. Or purchase via their website or selling platform, if they have one.
Click through to the Trader’s profile to find more items they may have on offer. Please don’t forget to follow them.
The total number of stories we can have online at any one time is 100, so those at the beginning will automatically start to be deleted once this number is reached. We recommend taking a screenshot if something catches your eye, in case the story disappears.
There'll be lots to see, so rewind during the fair for what’s new. The fair will be ‘live’ in our Stories for 24hrs. After this time you can still visit and shop by going to our Highlights button.
Delivery services are under pressure at the moment, so please be patient with posted or couriered purchases.
Join our mailing list so you don’t miss any future events (there’s a form at the bottom of this page).
