About Us: Three Rivers Vintage
Welcome to Three Rivers Vintage, the premier destination for authentic, high-quality vintage clothing and accessories. Nestled in the heart of Grove City, Pennsylvania, we are more than just a boutique; we are a carefully curated archive of fashion history. From the elegant silhouettes of the 1860s to the bold statements of the 1980s, our collection celebrates the enduring appeal of timeless style and the meticulous craftsmanship of eras past.
Our History
The story of Three Rivers Vintage began with a passion for preserving the sartorial artistry of bygone decades. Founded in 2014 by Scott Johnson, the shop originally opened its doors on East Carson Street in Pittsburgh. It quickly became a beloved fixture for vintage enthusiasts, collectors, and those seeking unique, hard-to-find pieces. Recognizing the need for a space that could better showcase our expanding collection, we eventually relocated to our current home at 112 S. Broad Street in Grove City.
Over the years, our reputation for excellence has extended far beyond Pennsylvania. Three Rivers Vintage has become a trusted resource for the film and television industry, providing authentic period pieces for major Hollywood productions. Our garments and accessories have been featured in acclaimed shows and movies such as The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Mindhunter, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, and I’m Your Woman. When The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel needed over a hundred pairs of authentic 1960s gloves with unique embellishments, they knew exactly where to turn. We take immense pride in knowing that our curated pieces help bring historical narratives to life on screen.
Our Mission
At Three Rivers Vintage, our mission is to provide a comprehensive and authentic vintage shopping experience. We believe that true vintage fashion is not merely about wearing old clothes; it is about embracing the history, quality, and individuality that each garment represents. We strive to offer our customers not just “plain and boring” items, but fun, fabulous, and extraordinary pieces that allow them to express their unique personal style.
Every item in our boutique is hand-selected with the utmost care. We meticulously wash, dry clean, steam, measure, and curate each garment and accessory before it ever reaches our floor. Our goal is to ensure that every piece you purchase is ready to be worn, cherished, and integrated seamlessly into your modern wardrobe.
