Prince Charles Loves Vintage


Prince CharlesDid you know that Prince Charles is an advocate of vintage?

In an interview for Vogue in September 2010 he said, “Fashion clearly makes people feel good, but now it has to do the world good too by contributing to the creation of a virtuous circle, with nature protected at the centre. I have a passion for reusing things and repairing them,”  Charles writes. “On the whole, the older some things are, the more comfortable and familiar they become; they can even be adapted to look new in a different context.”
