Bio

Hall & Hautes (originally Polygnome) offers exceptional vintage clothing & accessories, as well as our own one of a kind items. We believe that fashion should be a pleasure, and that it reflects the past, present and future.

They don't make things like they used to:
Most of fashion is already recycling. Styles today are re-appropriations of styles from the past. Oftentimes clothing today is made with lesser quality materials and cheaper manufacturing techniques. We like vintage and handmade because it's good for the environment, and doesn't support sweatshops. Our vintage clothing is hand picked for the ultimate in freshness and style. We’re not against new things, we love new things, but if you can buy used items of good quality with years of use left in them, that just makes sense. Owning a vintage piece of clothing is owning something that already has a story within it.


Knowing where it's coming from:
Our handmade items are crafted with almost entirely re-purposed or vintage materials. Using these materials gives each piece a unique personality which you won't find elsewhere. The nature of handmade items means that the items you purchase will generally be one of a kind. We take care to ensure that our handmade items are created with quality craftsmanship and love. Our handmade clothing, accessories and art are all made in Seattle, WA with care and dedication to great design.

Requests and Customized Orders:
Hall & Hautes is happy to receive requests for custom orders. If you see something handmade but would like it in different colors, slightly different style or a larger quantity, just let us know. Or if you've got a new idea in mind, we'll work with you to make your concept a reality. We'll get back to you as soon as possible to let you know if it's available and to give you a price quote. If you're looking for a specific type of vintage item, feel free to let us know and we'll keep that in mind when buying for the store.
