A & D Wholesale Vintage Clothing LLC - Los Angeles, California

A&D wholesale is an amazing place for vintage treasures! I’ve worked in the vintage clothing industry since 1988 and have seen a fair amount of vintage wholesalers and raghouses and I can honestly say A&D is a true gem! The owners are wonderful down to earth and just all around amazing. The selection of vintage is abundant and also amazing. The pricing is very good as well. I have found some amazing one of a kind pieces at A&D and always anticipate my next appointment to go picking ?
The clothing is very well categorized and the warehouse is one of the cleanest I’ve been to. Absolutely 5 stars!

I can not recommend Deborah enough. She has the best taste and expertise in picking vintage clothing. I am a longtime customer and always find so much great stock here plus Deborah hand picks for me too. She has so much experience in her field I find the previous negative feedback frankly baffling.
If you are looking for great vintage pieces handpicked by an expert A&D Wholesale should be your first place to visit.
Appointments are necessary so don’t expect to just rock up unannounced and get the full experience. You will need hours here not minutes. A treasure trove awaits. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

GREAT VINTAGE WHOLESALER!
A & D is a wonderful curated vintage wholesaler. Deborah is just a lovely person with a trained eye for unique vintage pieces. I have been a shopper in the film industry for many decades. When on a period project, I always call Deb and fill her in on what period the film TV project is and she can help source what we are looking for. I always make an appointment-and spend a day on the hunt. Jam packed rooms sorted by type and period. I will always use Deborah as one of my special sources!

I just read the review below, and it’s baffling. I’ve been a client of A&D for a year now and have had nothing but great experiences. The inventory is constantly updated, and there are no pulled tags. YOU WILL FIND UNIQUE & AUTHENTIC VINTAGE HERE! There’s a lot of “expert” vintage sellers out there, but let’s be real, they’re usually 20-something year olds just following the vintage trend right now. Deborah is an expert and a professional. She has an amazing collection, and we always leave satisfied (and with a large haul). We will continue to be clients of A&D!

We have been buying from Deborah for years. She has an astute understanding of the history of fashion & an enviable style & flair in curation of her wholesale pieces. We would not often order remotely from many suppliers, but Deborah is an exception as she places immense emphasis on understanding our customer & our requests/requirements... & she delivers.. every time. Deborah clearly takes great care & takes huge pride in her selection & we have NEVER been disappointed. She is also incredibly talented & adept at sewing/tailoring & reworking pieces to breathe new life into what otherwise would of been an unsellable piece. And these pieces are adorable & are great sellers for us! She is also an infectiously vivacious person with a huge smile & laugh that makes her warehouse an absolute pleasure to visit. And when we can’t get a babysitter she never makes us feel unwelcome & is always open arms to our children. A business with heart ❤️

As a vintage store owner, I travel all over the world and visit many vintage wholesale places. This is the only one that I have written a review on.

First and foremost, don’t be fooled. A lot of the “vintage” in here is mixed with contemporary (items that have a vintage look with the tags cut out as well). This is the WORST thing a wholesaler could possibly do. This poisons the market and the only people who suffer are the store owners. Cutting tags to promote a wholesale location as “vintage” is very dishonest and it shows a LOT about the person running this place.

When I arrived to my appointment (for which no time was set however the owner insisted it was 9 am), the owner did not bother to show up. I meet with EVERY owner at EVERY wholesale location I visit to establish a relationship for future purchases because I live on the east coast. Some of these places are 10,000 square feet of used clothing with teams of 150+ employees and STILL find the time to show up to the appointment.

On a better note, there were some cool items, however, the one item I really liked had a large sharpie mark across the front shoulder. I have no problem paying more for better quality items(I sell very high end items) but to pay more for this stuff that is at very best “fillers” is absolutely absurd.

This place has potential if they become more honest and have people picking for them that actually KNOW vintage but until that happens, I will be taking my business elsewhere.

A&D Wholesale is an amazing wholesale company with so many unique finds. Everytime i stop by there’s always great conversation- great selections and I can find myself there for HOURS just having a great time. The selections are phenomenal and there is an abundance of different kinds of clothing you can find. Really a one stop shop for all of your vintage fashion needs. Probably my favorite wholesale company thus far. Would recommend x 1000!! ✨✨

As a Costume Designer and Costumer for major television productions in Los Angeles, I can assure you that A & D is a resource unparalleled in terms of inventory and customer service. That's why most of the shows I know go there, so take it from professional shoppers that if you are looking for clothing "Heaven", it's here! Deborah has magic boxes of items because no matter what fantastic eclectic random item I'm looking for, it turns up; and I work on so many different kinds of shows with assorted looks. It's all there, and if it's not on one day it will be the next time because Deb turns her stock over quickly and there's constantly new fantastic finds. No matter what your fave T.V. show is, chances are that we have shopped at A & D.
