Rachel: My shop is called Ande Mönster, meaning Spirit Designs in Swedish. My shop is about supplying you with one-of-a-kind vintage kind apparel. I started the venture of owning a shop because I love the hunt and it gives me reason to do it and send my findings world wide.

Nora: What do you love the most about Vintage clothing?

Rachel:
I love the fact that vintage clothing has a story behind it, that someone kept it around for years and years and now it is traveling to someone else's closet to start another story.

Nora: Is fashion political? 
Rachel: Fashion can be political if you make it political. I believe it is cyclical.

Nora: What is your favorite dessert? 
Rachel: My favorite dessert is anything with chocolate and peanut butter. Mmmmm.


Nora: Who/What are your biggest style influences? Rachel: The one person who really stands out is Audrey Hepburn. She is so classy and effortless.
