Decades of Fashion
Cicely Hansen’s little shop on Haight Street is a must-visit for vintage clothing collectors. As one customer said, “Not only can you find the dress of your
dreams here, but you can fully accessorize it as well!” Today’s Costume Closet (for rent and sale) is just a tiny sample of Decades of Fashion.
Visit at 1740 Haight Street (between Cole St & Shrader Sts), San Francisco, CA 94117 (415) 668-8202.
