What Bohemian Retro Vintage is known for

A vintage shop selling clothing, accessories, jewelry, bags, shoes, and collectibles, with much of its stock sourced from former Czechoslovakia.

Bohemian Retro is run by Rebecca Eastwood, a British-born textile designer who has lived in Prague since the early 1990s and studied textile design in the UK to postgraduate level. She opened the shop in Žižkov, one of Prague's traditionally working-class districts now known for its bars, galleries and independent stores, building a stock of clothing, accessories, jewelry, bags, shoes and collectibles spanning roughly the 1920s through the 1980s. A significant share of the merchandise is sourced from the former Czechoslovakia, giving the shop a distinctly Central European character rather than the more generic Western vintage stock common elsewhere in the city. Eastwood has spoken publicly about the growth of vintage clothing as a retail category in the Czech Republic, describing how local interest in secondhand and period clothing has expanded since the shop's early years. The store operates on a limited weekly schedule, open Wednesday through Saturday, and Eastwood is known for offering hands-on styling help to customers browsing the racks rather than running the shop as a simple walk-in retailer. The result is a small, personally curated vintage destination shaped by one owner's decades of residence in the city and professional background in textiles, rather than a chain or a reseller operating at scale.
