Styling Series: Vintage Banana Republic

Style inspo for some fun vintage Banana Republic pieces

We’re back with another styling series—this time, featuring the bottomless pit of great vintage Banana Republic finds.

Banana Republic’s roots have always been in vintage, originally launching as a line of surplus garments that were well-tailored, classic, and made to last from the best fabrics. That legacy lives on in these pieces from the ‘80s and ‘90s, now available again in their Soho flagship store. Each one is a testament to the timeless style and enduring quality the brand stands behind.

One of my favorite things about vintage Banana Republic is how the leather pieces, safari-inspired separates, and rich neutrals still hold up decades later. But the real magic happens when you mix them with Banana Republic’s current collection. Pairing old with new brings out the best in both.

Let’s style a few looks using my favorite vintage Banana Republic finds alongside capsule pieces from the current line—proof that a little creative contrast is the secret to an elevated, effortless wardrobe.
