25+ Stores Like ModCloth With Vintage-Inspired & Indie Clothing You’ll Love!

Last Updated on November 30, 2021 by Jade

Ok, let me start off by saying I’m not here to discourage you from shopping on ModCloth. However, after the news broke that ModCloth was bought out by Jet.com and Walmart, I’ve been getting this question pretty frequently, “What other online stores are out there like ModCloth?” (As of 2020, though, they are no longer owned by Jet.com, and have since been sold to Go Global Retail.) 

So, I figured putting together a list of some websites that are similar to ModCloth might be useful! Though I still like ModCloth, I’ve personally started looking at other sites myself ever since ModCloth “upgraded” their website. If ModCloth gets their website fixed and keeps up their awesome vision and a wide variety of cute clothing, I will continue to shop there. I’m willing to see what happens before I abandon ModCloth, as this is a company that in all honesty had gotten me started in blogging and my love of vintage style fashion.

But, in the meantime, while we wait, these are some of the sites I’ve found that have helped me to fill that void. (This list is not in any particular order either, FYI.) I know there are loads more out there, so feel free to let me know some of your favorites in the comments! Enjoy!

20+ Online Stores like ModCloth

1.) Unique Vintage

Harry Potter x Unique Vintage Wands & Spells Gellar Swing Skirt

Unique Vintage carries a great range of retro-inspired designers with a variety of clothing, shoes and accessories to choose from. They also carry plus sizes too.

I’ve been ordering from Unique Vintage for years and can say without a doubt that their clothing is fantastic. I have tops, dresses and swimsuits by Unique Vintage that are holding up incredibly well over the years of constant wear. 

2.) Top Vintage

Collectif Clothing 50s Caterina Mermaid Check Swing Dress in Teal and Purple

Top Vintage started in 2008 in the company founder – Angelique’s –  living room. It started first as an exclusive vintage webshop and gradually blossomed to one of the leading online retro boutiques in Europe.  
 
They carry many of the same brands found on ModCloth and Unique Vintage (such as Mak Sweater – which is my personal favorite maker of cardigans and also Banned Retro.) And they carry many more gorgeous European-based brands such as Miss Candyfloss and King Louie. I also recently did a review post featuring retro swimwear from them.

3.) Mango

Openwork Baby doll neck cardigan

Mango is quickly becoming a favorite of mine, thanks to their classic, effortless ensembles. They are similar to ModCloth’s price point and actually carry stylish clothing for the whole family!

4.) Joanie Clothing

Corey Bows & Ribbons Print Shirt Dress

Joanie is a UK-based site that features timeless silhouettes, retro prints and unique designs that define each decade. Don’t let their UK roots discourage you if you’re US-based, though… their international shipping rates are affordable as are their prices! Most of Joanie Clothing dresses are $50 USD or less.

5.) Karina Dresses

Honest Review of Karina Dresses - The Original Easy Dress

Karina Dresses is a small US-based dress company that specializes in making dresses that are comfortable and can easily go from day to night. They are also very size-inclusive and their dresses range in size from XS-4X. Plus, their dresses are also wrinkle-resistance! I have 5 of their dresses now and have been using them for years. (I wrote a full review of their dresses, here.)

6.) Anthropologie

Mestiza Alfama Midi Dress

I love shopping on Anthropologie. They have such beautiful, boho-chic clothing. But, they are pricier than ModCloth. However, when a special occasion arises, I head to Anthropologie to check out their dress selection! (They also have cute, retro swimwear!)

7.) Hearts and Found

Kelly Dress White "Freshly Squeezed" Lemon Print

Hearts and Found is a fabulous little shop known for their beautiful vintage-inspired clothing – and all of their items can be made to your exact measurements! Even better, they have a mission to support local businesses and tailors and source all of their fabrics from local Vietnam markets. (They’re currently supporting an independent tailor in Vietnam named Co Thanh (Auntie Thanh). She has a small tailoring shop in an area called District 5 and currently employs 3 people.) How awesome is that?

8.) Chicwish

WE KNOW IT ALL GRADIENT PLEATED MESH TULLE DRESS

Chicwish has THE cutest skirts and dresses out there, in my opinion. They have plenty of fun prints, but I also love their selection of tulle and chiffon ones. Plus, they’re affordable, with most skirts coming in at less than $50. (They also have plenty of cute tops too!)

9.) Zappos

Lindsey of Have Clothes, Will Travel wears a Ted Baker dress ordered from Zappos The Style Room

Zappos is most known for its incredible selection of shoes and impeccable customer service. However, they also have a great selection of clothing and accessories with free shipping and free returns! Many of the brands mentioned in this post can also be found on Zappos. You can also link your Prime membership to your Zappos account to get exclusive benefits, like free upgraded shipping! (Seriously, some orders arrive in less than 24 hours.) 

10.) Amazon

Women's Casual Off Shoulder Pocket Bowknot Rockabilly Swing Vintage Cocktail Party Dress 188

I know this one may seem a little crazy. But lately, I have been having awesome luck finding vintage-inspired clothing and shoes on Amazon. I even ordered some decent petticoats from them! (Belle Poque on Amazon has some fun retro options!)

11.) Ted Baker

ZADI Knitted Frill Full Skirt Dress

Ted Baker has very recently been filling the hole in my heart that ModCloth had left. So, I’m adding ’em to the list! Ted Baker has the CUTEST, most feminine, classic attire ever (This is my favorite dress from there.)

I LOVE Ted’s shoes as well! They are pricier than ModCloth, though, but they run some phenomenal sales that bring their prices closer to ModCloth’s. (Sales are how I’ve bought all of my Ted Baker clothes so far.)

12.) Tara Lynn’s Boutique

SIMPLY SATIN DOVE COLORED DRESS

Tara Lynn’s Boutique is a family-owned clothing shop in Utah that ships world-wide. They make custom clothing for women of all shapes and sizes and work with top designers across the country to bring you one of a kind pieces, without compromising comfort. Their sizes range from XS-6X and have a very boho and timeless style to the majority of their pieces.

13.) Nordstrom

For my EU friends who want to shop on ModCloth but can’t right now (due to GDPR) – you’re in luck! ModCloth is actually carried on Nordstrom as well. You’ll actually be able to see their merchandise and get it shipped to you! *UPDATE – as of July 2020 ModCloth is currently sold out and not available on Nordstrom.

Nordstrom also has many beautiful dresses and skirts to choose from too. Their return policy is phenomenal too. (I had an issue with a pair of sandals I had for 6 months, and they let me return them with no hassle!)

14.) ASOS

COLLUSION pointed waist puff sleeve animal print midi dress in beige and black

ASOS has some fantastic pants, skirts and dresses. And even though they are a British-based company, their international shipping rates are very reasonable. They also carry a wide range of sizes – such as petite, tall, plus and maternity. 

15.) & Other Stories

Alpaca Blend Statement Collar Cardigan

& Other Stories carries BEAUTIFUL and timeless clothing with a hint of boho flair. Their price point is a wee bit higher than ModCloth’s (but not as high as Anthropologie or Free People).

16.) H&M

Satin Dress

H&M is my other go-to store for dresses. If I’m not finding what I’m looking for on ModCloth, I head on over to H&M. I love their selection of dresses and inexpensive accessories. (Most of the dresses I order from them are around the $34 mark!) They also have fabulous international shipping options.

17.) Review Australia

Review Floral Delight Dress

Review Australia was my favorite clothing store when I was living in Sydney. They have the most incredible vintage-inspired skirts and tops! Their quality is fantastic as well. I’d argue it’s way higher quality than ModCloth’s, too. The prices on average are slightly higher than ModCloth, though. They also ship worldwide now and offer free shipping if you spend over $150.

COLLECTIF MAINLINE PEARL COAT

New Adds

18.)  Collectif

I have had numerous requests to add Collectif to this list – and after spending many moons browsing their stock, I have to agree! The vintage style and quirky prints are the perfect addition to this list. And my next midi skirt is totally getting ordered from here! (I also have started doing my own shopping here! Check out my new favorite swing coat and cape from Collectif.)

19.) Chi Chi London

Chi Chi Curve Ryley Dress

This is a brand I was introduced to via ModCloth. They carry several of their dresses on their website. I don’t personally own any Chi Chi London dresses, but I have seen them in person and they are a DREAM. So gorgeous! (And perfect for a wedding or the holidays!)

20.) Nasty Gal

White Turtleneck and Oversized Sweater

Nasty Gal is certainly a bit edgier than ModCloth’s usual stock. However, they carry some beautiful, classic-looking clothing…and some rather sexy options as well. Nasty Gal has a very similar start-up story to ModCloth as well – which I always enjoyed. “Nasty Gal started in a tiny San Francisco apartment stacked with killer vintage, a single laptop and an eBay account… “

21.) Miss Patina

Emmeline Dress Miss Patina - Stores Like Modcloth

“Vintage-inspired fashion with a modern twist for women who enjoy the little things in life.” Miss Patina’s entire website is brimming with gorgeous designs that make my heart go pitter-patter.  I can’t get enough of their adorable kitty cat designs. If you can browse this website and not buy anything… you have far more self-control than I do! 

Even celebrities such as Taylor Swift, Elle Fanning, Sienna Miller and Emilia Clarke, (just to name a few) are fans of Miss Patina’s delightful designs. 

22.) eShakti

eShakti FX Floral Embroidered Cotton Knit Dress- Customizable Neckline, Sleeve & Length

eShakti has a great range of cute dresses, skirts and pants in a wide variety of sizes. They also have started adding a lot of quirky prints! Oh, and if that’s not enough, they also have the option to customize your sizing and the style of the clothes you order! It’s pretty nifty, actually. I have really loved my dresses from eShakti (and they have pockets)!

23.) ZAPAKA

Vintage Lapel Collar Dark Green Bodycon Dress

I was only recently introduced to ZAPAKA, and I can’t believe I hadn’t heard of them sooner! They’ve been around for a while and are similar to ModCloth in the sense that they carry many different retro designers on their website, but they also have their own ZAPAKA private label. Their retro dresses are absolutely stunning and, the prices are far lower than what you would pay on ModCloth! (The majority of dresses are less than $40! I also think this is a great alternative to everyone who is missing LindyBop, too.)

24.) Madewell

Dolman-Sleeve Ruffle-Hem Midi Dress in Flower Garden

Madewell is most known for their great jeans. However, they also make some fabulous dresses, skirts and tops! They are a little bit more casual than the average ModCloth outfit…but I still think they deserved to be mentioned. (My ModCloth loving heart is swooning over quite a few pieces on Madewell right now!)

25.) Olivela

House of FluffNotch Collar Cape

Olivela is a luxury retailer that, for every designer item sold, donates a portion of its proceeds to children in need. They also offer free shipping and free returns with a wide variety of fashion items, home decor and beauty products.

26.) Sister Jane

DREAMING DAISIES Honey Bee Tweed Mini Skirt

Sister Jane is a London-based fashion brand that creates unique, vintage-inspired designs. They combine whimsical eccentricity with a distinctive style signature. Pieces emphasize unique, unexpected details that are colorful, fresh, and trend-led while carrying a retro nod. Shipping to the US is free if you spend over £100.

27.) Simple Retro

Selena Polo Contrast Collar Contrast 100% Wool Knit Sweater

Simple Retro focuses on creating pieces that are effortless and transcend seasonal trends, fitting seamlessly within any modern wardrobe. Six times a year they release seasonal collections including Pre-Spring and Pre-Fall. Their prices are on average, about the same as ModCloth too.

New Add for Quirky Holiday Attire:

28.) Shinesty!

The Savannah Swinger Plaid Strappy Dress

Shinesty is a goofy clothing company that specializes in quirky/loud prints…and sometimes downright outrageous clothing. However, their collection of dresses is something I think most ModCloth-lovers will love! They also have fun jumpsuits this year. (The dress above is from their Kentucky Derby collection and is one of their more subdued prints. Haha.)

Oh, and their pajamas are the softest things on the planet. My husband and I have matching PJs from here, and we live in them.

Hotter Shoes is a popular British shoe company that has 60 years of experience in the footwear industry. They now also have a US-based website that I can easily order from. I love their selection of vintage-style heels!

  1. Daddy-O’s is an awesome site for retro clothes. They are closed due to Covid-19 but when they reopen try them out. Their clothes last forever (I have a 12 year old dress that still looks new) and fit perfectly!
