The NY Archive began on the Upper East Side in a room once filled with dress-up trunks and costume jewelry—an early blueprint for what would become a rigorously curated collection of more than 250 pairs of vintage designer heels. Rooted in New York nostalgia and built with an editorial eye, The Archive has evolved from a small personal collection into a living, growing ecosystem dedicated to the preservation, celebration, and re-imagining of fashion history.

What started as a quiet catalog of rare pieces is now a destination for industry professionals, creatives, and collectors seeking access to archival footwear, styling rentals, and one-of-a-kind vintage. The Archive’s influence spans New York Fashion Week, major editorial campaigns, and private wardrobes around the world, yet its ethos remains constant: fashion as a form of becoming.

The NY Archive operates as both a curated showroom and a storytelling space—where sophistication meets imagination, and where every piece holds a past and a future. It is designed for those who understand that New York style is equal parts polish and play: tea at Bergdorf’s and dollar slices downtown, elegance with edge, nostalgia with intent.

Above all, The Archive is a love letter to the city that shaped it. A place for those who dress with memory, with vision, and with the belief that getting dressed is not just an act of style, but an act of self.
