Nordic Poetry

The owner of Nordic Poetry, Ameli, was extremely rude to me and my friends. She acted as if we could not afford anything in the store, made us feel unwelcome, and treated us with disrespect throughout our visit. Her attitude came across as judgmental and dismissive, and at times it felt like she was mocking us. We were very disappointed by the way we were treated and did not feel valued as customers.

A true gem for vintage and archival lovers

Nordic Poetry feels more like stepping into someone’s carefully curated dream wardrobe than a regular store. Every piece has a story and Ameli ,the owner, helped me find one of my dream Gucci bag🤩

The space itself is beautifully done too, you kind of want to hang out there all afternoon.

It’s one of those places that remind you fashion can still feel personal, inspiring, and a little bit magical. A must-visit in London for anyone into real vintage, not just “thrift.”

A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE

A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
The owner, Ameli, was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. She clearly takes great pride in her store and rightfully so, as everything is beautifully curated and of excellent quality. Her professionalism and warm personality made the whole visit a real pleasure. I left feeling excited about my purchase and impressed by how much care she puts into her business. I couldn’t recommend this place more!

THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER

The worst experience ever, stay away from this shop the owner is absolutely unprofessional, rude, aggressive and she think her store is the best in the world, she is absolutely delusional.
Ameli’s attitude was shockingly arrogant and dismissive, the kind of superiority complex that makes you wonder how she can be working in retail and treat the clients so poorly.

I would like to add for Ameli the owner Nordic Poetry.

Quality vintage designer clothing coupled with great service, a MUST visit!!

I visited Nordic Poetry after it being recommended by a friend and WOW it was none other than a whole experience! We were greeted by the owner and shop assistant who were both super friendly and attentive and have to be credited for their refreshing energy, they truly brought the shop to life and made us feel so welcome!

After browsing for a few minutes, the owner personally recommended some pieces for me to try, it honestly felt like such a personal shopping experience and as a customer I couldn’t ask for more! Both ladies were super knowledgeable offering detailed descriptions and genuine opinions on each item I tried, their passion for the pieces they sell and the industry as a whole was more than evident.

After an hour of totally unmatched retail therapy I left with two gorgeous dresses and a seriously boosted ego! I have genuinely never had such a positive shopping experience, it exceeded any expectations couldn’t recommend this shop more! Thank youuu

The best store I have ever been too

The best store I have ever been too. I was looking for a specific vintage runway piece and was only visiting London for a couple weeks. Amelie the owner of the shop was so helpful and found this for me and I had a whole trying on time given. Everyone who worked there was so nice, cool, and knew their stuff. I’ve now made a visit every time I visit London. Best shop! Best store! Best items!

This is the best boutique I’ve ever…

This is the best boutique I’ve ever been for vintage clothing. I loved every piece and the owner is the best at what she does. I felt like I got a queens treatment thanks to her! Highly recommend

Hi , We are sorry to hear that you where not happy with our prices . We are not an average vintage store . We specialise in very rare highly sought after designer pieces that are very difficult to find . It takes a lot and time and effort to find these pieces. So I would like to know what you base this on ? Are you an industry professional? in regards to rude staff , I am really sorry and surprised to hear that as we do pride ourself and go beyond to give our customers the best experience . Can you please let me know what happen ? Many Thanks Ameli

Unbelievable collection

Unbelievable collection, best I’ve probably ever seen and I like to fancy myself a bit of a collector. Besides the iconic pieces Nordic Poetry have acquired, the owner made me feel so welcome, her knowledge on fashion & fashion history is unparalleled and I must say - I was super impressed. Visiting the store was the highlight of my week!

Fantastic staff - Great overall experience!

I was greeted by two lovely staff members who were incredibly helpful. I purchased two items from the store, both beautifully unique, alongside all the other items they stock. I'm so pleased with them, can't wait to come back and shop again.

Watch out. They’ll rip you off.

Don’t do it! They refuse refunds when it’s your legal right, and the item is bought online and is a legitimate return. Total scam! The owner is aggressive (read google reviews about her too) and the items are overpriced. No authentication, some suggesting dodgy labels being sewn on that don’t look real and don’t match the rest of the item. Sweat stains in armpits and tears - not noted on site. Much better off going to others - even Beyond Retro & Rokit are better quality, and fairly priced. More special pieces can be found at Relik, Found & Vision, Lime Green Bow, SOTT, Bella Ling - do many great resale sites. Try circleofstyle.com. Loads of others online.

EDIT: the response from the owner says it all!! I’ve read other reviews and it’s so obvious every time she gets a negative review she denies everything then gets all her friends/staff to write fake reviews. DONT DO IT!!

EDIT: bank forced her to give a refund after she kept our money AND the dress (£3000!) for 10 weeks! Lawyer taking her to court next. And Trading standards have a few complaints already!!

BEWARE.

Hi 'AB', as already mentioned on Google where you posted the same review under another alias account - operating as Circle Of Style - this is now filed as defamation and malicious falsehood. We take an incredible amount of time and effort to source each and every piece by hand with a specific focus on high quality and rare pieces. We have a rigorous authentication system in place to ensure that every pieces that comes in and out of Nordic Poetry is authentic, dated and priced accordingly. I think you'll find that other vintage suppliers do not have the rare archive of Tom Ford for Gucci and Vivienne Westwood, amongst many others, that we have - so maybe it is best for you to brush up on your vintage knowledge before you send people elsewhere. We have never sewn on a fake label and, once again, if you expand your vintage knowledge you would know that brands often changed their labels throughout time periods - something that often helps us date pieces. Whilst your review is almost amusing at the length you have gone to as a disgruntled competitor, we do not take these false claims lightly and urge you to rethink what you are posting publicly in order to serve your benefit.
