What is Second Love?

We are so excited to announce the trial launch of Second Love - an initiative to save you money, save the planet and help your wallet.

What is Second Love?

Second Love is a peer to peer platform consisting of a  curated range of samples, seconds, deadstock and gently used well known retro brand names such as Hell Bunny, Collectif, Tatyana, Unique Vintage - and so many more in the waiting wings!

We are trialing the launch with trusted partners - some loyal customers, and some fellow shop owners, but soon we will be opening to more sellers. 

How Do I know if an item is part of the Second Love range?

Every Second Love item is denoted by the cute little Second Love badge. When you are looking at the gorgeous goodies on the Cheribomb Retro website, you will see items with the the badge in the upper right hand corner.

How can I be sure that the garment I'm buying is exactly as described?

Cautious is good, especially in these current economic times. This is why we are trialing the initiative with trusted sellers. Cheribomb Retro has been in the vintage game since 2016 - we will vet and approve each and every item that is listed for sale.  We will only allow good quality known brands for sale. There are also checks and measures for sellers and buyers that we have in place. 

Each garment is thoroughly described and priced according to it's status. Each garment is thoroughly described and priced according to it's status, and there is a unique system of symbols which will allow you to easily understand the state of each garment:

 

Brand New With Tags - exactly as described. This year has taken its toll on many small businesses and we have seen many business closures. Second Love is also a coop of sorts helping small businesses owners move on BNWT stock in these dire economic times.

Brand New Without Tags - exactly as described. Brand new stock that is missing tags.
Needs Some TLC - please read item description very carefully, this garment may have some faults. 

PreLoved - grab a bargain with gently preloved goods!

This item from the early 60s is in immaculate condition. 

 

This classic 1950s silk sheath dress features vibrant red roses and green leaves, creating a timeless silhouette with a nipped waist and fitted skirt. The bodice has an oval neckline and long sleeves, with a shelf bust adorned with a large self trim bow. The base of the skirt boasts a long stem rose print, adding to its charm. Despite its age of over sixty years, this vintage dress has been impeccably maintained and is in excellent condition without any noticeable flaws. It appears to have hardly been worn and is a truly captivating piece. A back metal zipper completes the look.

About the designer

His company, originally known as Arkin & Schrader, specialized in high-end women's ready-to-wear clothing on Seventh Avenue. In September 1953, the company name was changed to Abe Schrader, Inc.
