Berlin (just like Paris and New York) is famous for fashion. Any and all styles are permitted and celebrated – the more original and eclectic, the better. Among the most popular and established second-hand stores in the city, there are golden nuggets to be found all around Berlin. Each store offers a variety of styles that span the decades, ranging from fur coats to leather jackets, sequined dresses and college sweaters to knee-high boots. Culture Trip brings you the Berlin guide to vintage shopping. Happy hunting!
