I am Lisette and live in Haarlem with my husband Yuri and 2 kids Fonk and Yoep, in The Netherlands. Already since I was very jung I used to dress myself up in vintage clothes from my mother. Nowadays people still say I have a beautiful own style. I just love old vintage designs with puffy sleeves, lace, prints, embroidery flowers, trimt and graceful dashing skirts etc. They make me feel so extremely feminine, different and unique.
A while ago my mother gave me some of her old vintage dresses. The quality of these dresses was still very good after all those years! Then I decided to start my own clothing brand inspired by vintage clothes from my mother, to make people feel beautiful and stand out in a crowd.
I started with re-designing one of my favorite vintage dresses, but made it more from this time. The result was just amazing! Then I started to make jackets from used fabrics like patchwork plaids and retro sleeping bags.
All clothes are handmade by myself in The Netherlands. There are a lot of work hours and love in every piece of clothing I made.
I will sell the clothes on vinted named ‘New Vintage Look’, but my clothing brand is called ‘Van Adam’ which means ‘From Amsterdam’. This because I used to live in Amsterdam for a long time, and my husband is born there.
Upcycled clothes for everyone! You will feel amazing in these unique clothes. They are true pieces of art if I may say so.
I hope you are just as enthusiastic about my brand as I am and if you have any questions or request please let me know!
