Ghostown Storefront Williamsburg, Brooklyn New York City '04

Early ‘90s Grunge is kind of our forté… because we were teenagers!

Ghostown Boutique is an online storefront that specializes in avant-garde Designer Vintage pieces. A combination of Ghostown and et dérive Showroom.
Est. 2004

Ghostown was a 2,000 square foot storefront on Grand Street in the heart of Williamsburg Brooklyn, New York that housed vintage and designer between the years 2004 and 2006. Ghostown received a lot of press in publications such as Purple, Nylon, Elle, Vogue Nippon, New York Magazine, K48 and VICE. We were also able to either play host or collaborate with some epic musicians such as Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth, Jennifer Herrema of Royal Trux, Devendra Banhart, Free Blood, The Gossip, Slint, The Rapture, !!!, LCD Soundsystem, Au Revoir Simone, White Magic, Brian DeGraw & Taka Imamura of Gang Gang Dance and Adam Bennati of bands Children & Early Man.

Sara worked as a stylist for Barney’s New York CO-OP, Samantha Pleet, Trasteverine, Black Sheep & Prodigal Sons, Lips Jeans, WOWCH, The Pop Manifesto, W, Oyster, Mirage Magazine, VICE and many more. She was one of the first New York stylists to dress fashion icons Coco Rocha & Hanne Gaby Odiele; and played an instrumental role in dressing The New Yorker’s “coolest girl in the world”, Chloë Sevigny during New York Fashion Week. Sara’s personal high point was dressing Au Revoir Simone for an event where the band collaborated with David Lynch for the launch of his Transcendental Meditation book, “Catching the Big Fish” in Union Square.

She also worked directly alongside Photographers & Directors such as Sebastian Mlynarski, Justin Borucki, Nadav Benjamin, Gisel Florez, Car Pelleteri, Ryan Michael Kelly, Patrick de Warren, Ben Mistak, Tobin Yelland and Patrick O’Dell. Selecting wardrobe for actors and musicians such as Beth Ditto and The Gossip, Ilirjana Alushaj, Elliot Page, Lauren Ambrose, Paul Rudd, Sarah Paulson, Maura Tierney, Crispin Glover, Tom Morello, and many more.

Samuel is a Visual Artist whose diverse post studio practice includes Painting, Sculpture, Multimedia, and Performance. He has taught numerous subjects: Fashion Illustration, Post Modern Critique, and Life Drawing. Sam has worked with a number of Internationally recognized artists such as Mike Kelley, Liz Larner, Al Ruppersburg, Chris Williams, Andrea Zittel, among others. Sam's projects tend to reference a common dialectic at work throughout the artistic community: the hidden complexity of everything we create or place in a signifying framework.

et dérive Showroom and Zine were established in 2007 by Sara and Samuel Bridgman in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. All vintage pieces throughout our editorial photo shoots are available for inspiration rental. Our showroom maintains an archive of over 2,000 unique pieces that coincide with au courant and avant-garde fashion forecasts. Eventually we have to turn it over to make room for fresh pieces. We rent to some of today's most innovative fashion designers, costume designers and fashion stylists.

Thank you everyone for all of your collaboration throughout the years!
We STAND with AMERICA’S WOMEN!! Please contact sara [!at] ghostownboutique.com in regard to safe-space in a sanctuary state.

Owners, Purveyors Of Awesome Finds

In collecting each piece we lean towards the thing that seems infinitely contemporary. Vintage isn't about appearing incongruous or anachronistic to popular taste. Contemporary art and design is always informing the decision-making process.
Bean Bridgman

Assistant, Muse

Bean follows me around the studio all day while I do all the work. He occasionally poses for me but he most definitely is always there when I need him to be just about anything from a pillow to a connoisseur of fine striped garments and Jedi vests.
Chester Bridgman

Customer Service, Back Talk

Chester is a truly fine specimen of manhood. He keeps me on my toes and everyone on task. He struts around the studio like he owns the place because clearly he does. He knows his role in life. Number 1 Son…
