A Collector's Vision Brought to Life

The Wilde Shop emerged from the personal journey of Edda Hansen, who studied art in London before immersing herself in the fashion industry in New York. During her travels, she developed a passion for sourcing exceptional vintage pieces from flea markets and boutiques worldwide. After relocating to Copenhagen in 2014, Hansen spent four years curating an extraordinary collection before opening The Wilde Shop to share her discoveries with the world. What began as inspirational photography and personal acquisitions evolved into a carefully curated retail destination that reflects decades of fashion expertise and aesthetic refinement.

Heritage Design and Curated Collections

The shop specializes in heritage designer vintage clothing, collectible handbags, and jewelry with distinctive character. Each piece is selected for its quality, uniqueness, and ability to help customers build a signature wardrobe that authentically reflects their personal style. The inventory spans vibrant dresses, ruffled blouses, vintage accessories, and designer bags from iconic international brands. Items are sourced from multiple continents, ensuring a diverse range that balances both Danish and international fashion sensibilities. The mid-to-high price range reflects the excellent condition, rarity, and designer provenance of each carefully chosen piece.

Intimate Atmosphere and Aesthetic Experience

Located at Store Kongensgade 22 in Copenhagen's city center, the boutique occupies an intimate space designed to enhance the browsing experience. The shop's carefully curated presentation and thoughtful organization create an environment where each piece can be appreciated individually. The aesthetic combines vintage charm with modern retail sensibility, making it as much a destination for visual inspiration as for shopping. The store's design and curation have earned recognition from Vogue as Copenhagen's wildly creative vintage mecca, attracting fashion enthusiasts and collectors seeking authentic, character-filled pieces.

Sustainable Fashion Philosophy

The Wilde Shop embodies a sustainable approach to fashion by championing the reuse and appreciation of heritage clothing. By offering designer vintage and high-quality second-hand pieces, the shop encourages customers to build wardrobes with longevity and meaning rather than disposable trends. Each purchase represents a conscious choice to extend the lifecycle of exceptional garments while reducing environmental impact. This philosophy aligns with growing awareness of sustainable consumption in fashion, making The Wilde Shop a destination for those seeking both style and responsibility.

Online and In-Store Experience

The shop operates both as a physical retail location and an online platform, allowing customers to explore the collection remotely or visit in person. The online presence extends the reach of Hansen's curation beyond Copenhagen's borders, while the in-store experience provides the tactile and visual immersion that vintage shopping offers. Customers can examine the quality, texture, and details of pieces firsthand, and the staff can provide context and styling guidance for building cohesive wardrobes.
