In Short
A fixture in Chicago for nearly two decades, Silver Moon has deals on antique clothing that you won't believe. The store also sells some vintage furnishings and accessories as well as an expanded collection of wedding dresses that hang delicately in plastic. Carefully marked with price, size and decade, some items date back to the 19th century, with most from the 1930s and '40s. There's also a selection of new Vivienne Westwood clothes and jewelry.

I've bought several things from Silver Moon Chicago (now located on North near Wood) and have never regretted it. The selection and quality of their clothes is wonderful. They have gorgeous hats, gloves, and jewelry as well. Their clothes range from the 1890s through the 1960s, but they mostly just have stuff from the 40s-60s out for people to try on. They also have some really beautiful vintage bridal gowns and carry a lot of Vivienne Westood. Don't worry lads, there's even a men's section! And, for you Rockabillies, they even have vintage housewares. Check out this jewel and you won't be disappointed.

If you love clothes you will LOVE this place. The decor is amazing, like the closet you've always dreamt of. It's funky without being too out there, hip without being too sterile and feminine without being girly. And that's just the walls. Wait til you see the clothes. I walked in here after stopping at a few other places around and I didn't want to leave. They stock the most beautiful jackets from the '40s. Amazing dresses from every decade, and luscious vintage lingerie. I was low on cash so I bought a hat. The most amazing black cocktail hat with a veil from the '50's. But I wanted to buy the entire store. They also stock vintage wedding gowns that will change your world. Cute bags and shoes are tastefully placed around the store, with a bit of jewelry at the cash register-impulsive. Anytime you need a new outfit, this should be your first stop.

Silver moon is a great vintage shop in lakeview. They have pieces from a big range of periods, with inexpensive to quite pricey items. The whole store has a rock-n-roll feel to it (the owner does wardrobe work for Aerosmith, which explains a lot). It's a fun place to shop and you're sure to find something interesting when you go in.

Look Good:
Check out the men's ties, bow ties, Sam Spade-like fedoras, watches and some fantastic art-deco cufflinks--they make great original gifts.
The Extras:
If you have always dreamt of wearing a modernized version of your mother's wedding gown, just ask. The boutique will deconstruct the old gown into an updated version. Call for pricing.
