One of my favorite vintage stores in Antwerp is Think Twice. They have three different stores around town. One is located on Jezusstraat 18, another one on Kammenstraat 89 and the third on Lange Klarenstraat 21.
What I love about T2 is the feeling you get after finding a real treasure in between all the items being sold. Like with most vintage stores it's about feeling the history of the item that gives it meaning. You can donate items you don't wear or use anymore, in order for them to find new owners.
Monthly, Think Twice has special sales where items are being sold 30% or 50% off. There are also Happy Hours for special reductions. On some days you can get every piece in the store for €3, €2 or €1. You should check their Facebook page to know exactly when it takes place.
No matter if you are looking for special clothes for an upcoming theme party or costumes for a theater performance or just for a little treasure for yourself, this is the place to hunt!
