Brick Lane and the surrounding streets (Cheshire St, Hanbury St) should be priority addresses for vintage lovers. Make sure you have a full day set aside for exploring. You will have a lot of shops to get through!
Brick Lane is very hip right now and the vintage stores have a high turnover of stock. Prices are reasonable but not cheap. The area is great for finding 50's to 90's on trend pieces at stores such as Rocket and Vintage with Love. For accessories and pieces from 20's - 50's pop into This Shop Rocks (hats especially) or Hunky Dory Vintage.
If markets are more your thing, head over to Brick Lane on Sunday with the crowds when the street turns into a market. All day into the early evening it's all second hand/vintage clothes, street food, recovery beers and fun in the sun.
