When it comes to vintage dresses, Lost and Found is a place to find them with truly "vintage wear" being available with some styles dating back to the 1900s. In addition to the items that the shop finds on its own, it also offers dresses brought in and sold on consignment which only widens the selection available. According to Angela at the shop, the vintage dresses can go fast, but with the newer trends in weddings and the wider selection of nontraditional dresses being worn by brides, the possibilities are almost endless. When it comes to the bridal party, there is a wide selection of clothing and accessories and many times, the groom can find something that will fit the bill for him as well. With a super helpful staff, large selection and reasonable prices, Lost and Found should be at the top of the list for shops to visit.
