This is not your everyday vintage market. ICONs which is being presented by Duchesse Vintage and the Eastside Flea is being billed as a ‘cool flea market’. There will be over 40 vendors including some collectors thrown into the mix. The theme of ICONS “represents the racy subculture of modern vintage lifestyle – easy livin’, freedom, counterculture, psychedelia, design & style cues from the best of the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s & a bit of early 90’s cultural icons”. Think “Keith Richards, Bridget Bardot, Iggy, Twiggy, Andy Warhol, Jane Birkin, Farrah Fawcett, Madonna, Steve McQueen, Patti Smith, Townes Van Zandt”. At ICONS, you can expect to find some psychedelic posters, antiques, records, taxidermy, retro lamps as well as small furniture, cameras and a bit of this and that as well as change rooms for trying on clothing. You can also expect to find a photo booth, drink specials and DJ Elliot Way spinning tunes from the 60s and 70s. The event is being held at the Biltmore Cabaret, 2755 Prince Edward Street. With its legendary red-velvet décor seems like a perfect fit for this event. ICONS gets under way at 11:00 am and goes till 5:00 pm. This event is for 19+.
