Editorial Review for Trash and Vaudeville – by Greta Emler
In Short
Trash and Vaudeville is a St. Marks shopping landmark with clothing designed to scare your mother. It has been the shopping destination of untold numbers of "alternative" notables, from Debbie Harry to John Sex. Looking for a way besides your green mowhak to express yourself? How about a transparent green vinyl Astroskirt? For the more timid, there's one of the cutest versions of the trendy Chinoiserie look: a blue and gold, or red and gold silk miniskirt with blue peek-a-boo pleats in contrasting colors.

I took a friend from out of town there last night. We went downstairs first where the manager not only looked unhappy to be there, but wasn't very friendly. We strolled to the back shoe section, where my friend made a friendly joke about one of the boots. The salesguy gave us an annoyed look and then went to the back room without asking us if we needed help. Downstairs was a gloomy experience. HOWEVER, we went upstairs to where Jimmy is and it was completely different. We met and talked with Jimmy, he posed for pictures with us, and even let my 12 yr-old daughter try on a top hat that Slash autographed. Don't think it's just punk rockers that shop the store - I was suprised to see Jane Fonda's autographed pic behind the register. Upstairs w/Jimmy rocks!

You will totally fall in love with this place. The clothes are great and so much fun... I love vinyl and animal prints! The staff is very friendly and really make you feel comfortable just browsing around. You totally feel like you belong here; no pressure, no suggestive selling, it feels like you are hanging out in your raddest friends closet!
Pros: Laid-back Atmosphere, Friendly staff
Cons: not a huge selection in larger sizes
