Retrospect Vintage opened in recent weeks at 906 S. Charles St. in Federal Hill. The shop fills a storefront that was the longtime home of Glow to Go Skin Bar before it closed last year.
Retrospect is owned by MJ Broderick, who has been in the vintage clothes business for five years. He was a partner on a shop in Crofton, MD, has been doing pop-ups and online sales over the past year, and opened Retrospect in April. Broderick’s focus is on sportswear, and Orioles gear is his “bread and butter.” He does a drop of Orioles items every Saturday and often gets customers showing up before Retrospect opens at 11am.
Broderick also tries to bring in a lot of Ravens gear, and sells items such as NASCAR shirts, Harley Davidson gear, Olympics apparel, jean shirts, alcohol and cigarette brand clothes, and nature shirts. He also focuses on ugly sweaters around the holidays.
