In the vintage clothing world, there’s a moment when one day you’ll find your childhood wardrobe on sales hangers. About five years ago, CC Indivero and Mike Huddleston of GVG Events started seeing clothes that they wore as kids in the summer of 1996. “At first, I laughed, like they think what I wore when I was 11 is cool, but now, it’s everywhere.”

“I love things but I hate waste,” says Dara Schaier, the Atlanta-based entrepreneur behind Mysterious Vintage, a shopping experience that combines sustainability and surprise. “So a business centered around vintage and secondhand objects just felt right to pursue. I was also thinking about creating a shopping experience where the act of getting the thing is just as fun as the actual thing.”

At heart, Mike Huddleston and C.C. Indivero are just thrift store kids with a knack for arts and crafts. The pair met in 2013 when Indivero, a professional hairdresser, cut Huddleston’s hair; they hit it off over a shared love of all things secondhand. From there, a beautiful friendship—and business venture—was born.
