about us

ARCHIVAL loves beautiful clothing. Curated secondhand NZ vintage, NZ contemporary fashion, and gorgeous international designer picks. We especially treasure one of a kind, made to last heirloom pieces, natural fabrics including silk, linen and cotton, and handmade treasures - but we're not above saving the occasional striking high street gem.


We're about slow fashion, supporting sustainable practices - repair and re-use, reducing landfill, sourcing goods locally, and using recycled packaging.

We've been trading since 2020. We hope you love your finds, and we're here to help. We're human - if we make a mistake, please let us fix it! Our selection is nearly all pre-loved, so may not be in perfect condition -
