Pre-Loved Podcast with Emily Stochl

S9 Ep25 MANZANITA: Dorit Avganim, stylist and curator - on personal styling, and a belief in urban storefront corridors and community spaces.


Listen Later

On today’s show, we’re chatting with Dorit, founder of Manzanita, a vintage boutique in University City in West Philly. Dorit is a stylist, and in fact she was recently named Philadelphia Magazine’s Best Philly Stylist!

We talk about her special styling talents and her unique approach to curation – she feels she can call in the exact right person for each piece she pulls, and I think vintage-lovers you can probably relate! The piece finds you!

Plus, her belief in urban storefront corridors and why she became inspired to open a physical community space, making vintage accessible and available to all. 

I think you’re gonna love it, so  –  let’s dive right in!

DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE:

  • [3:10] Thrifting a three-piece suit as a pre-teen sparked a love of secondhand
  • [8:04] When she pulls a piece off the rack, she’s calling in its perfect customer.
