Threadbare Show, the vintage clothing and antique textile fair best known for kicking off Brimfield week in Massachusetts, returns to Brooklyn this Friday and Saturday, October 23–24. The New York edition, billed as "Dumbo NYC," is held at 26 Bridge Street.
More than 40 dealers from around the country are selling women's, men's and everybody vintage clothing, plus quilts, textiles and accessories dating from roughly 1790 to 1990. The organizers describe the range as running from rare workwear, antique quilts and vintage gowns to graphic tees, and from denim to designer. In its Instagram posts, the show says one dealer is bringing enough 1950s jackets to outfit a group of friends.
Two food and drink vendors, oldenyoon and repeatercoffee, will be on site with racks of vintage alongside coffee, matcha and pastries.
Friday opens with an Early Buyers hour from noon to 1 p.m. ($45), followed by general admission from 1 to 7 p.m. On Saturday, general admission runs 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. A general admission ticket costs $15 and is good for both days. Tickets are sold at threadbareshow.com.
The organizers put the venue about 15 minutes from Midtown Manhattan. The closest subway stops are the F at York St or the A/C at High St–Brooklyn Bridge.
This is not the show's first time at the address. Antiques and The Arts Weekly covered the June 2023 edition at 26 Bridge Street, reporting steady buyer traffic across both days and strong sales for most dealers. The trade paper noted that local design professionals and New York dealers who often can't make the trip to the show's Massachusetts location also came to shop.
