Accueil - Berlin Poche - le magazine culturel des Francophones de Berlin. Les Lapins Techno. Vintage shopping in Berlin. By Natasha Montrose Berlin is not the first capital city one thinks of when it comes to great shopping.
Coming from Paris, where couture is like caffeine and well-heeled Parisians are part of the cityscape, fashion in Berlin seems categorically different. Yet for those seeking something unique, the city is rich with second-hand and vintage shops, offering a huge range of styles that reflect the cultural changes Berlin went through during the twentieth century, from the decadent Weimar Republic to the turbulent reunification years. Prices vary widely – you can pick things up from as little as 5 euros up to 150 euros.
