House of Kismet

"They always have a unique and curated selection of vintage items- definitely worth checking out!"

"This place is not mentioned much in local travel guides and even when talking to locals. I visited from out of town and happened to wander in while on my way to another vintage store. It is so well curated with actual vintage clothing at reasonable prices. Other stores in the area put up thrift clothing at vintage prices but House of Kismet is the real deal. We found plenty of items and the staff was really helpful. One of Asheville’s best for sure."

"My Husband and I shopped in Kismet today. We met the owner and she was most helpful, pulling items of the styles I mentioned I liked to try on. This was most helpful since it was a first time visit and there was an abundance of choices. I bought two lovely wraps, one was navy cashmere and One cream fringed that was a wool blend and appears to be hand woven. Both were fabulous finds. The store was also very well organized. Happy Shopping. The G’s Birmingham Al"

"Amazing collection of true vintage! Just a quick walk through offers : Ladies dresses, gowns, sweaters, shirts & coats; Menswear suits, jackets, sweaters & shirts; some vintage kids wear; lots of vintage fashion accessories - including jewelry, hats and the most stunning collection of purses & leather handbags. Some excellent vintage kitchen & home wares including blankets, furniture, lights, linens, as well as some really amazing vintage art. They also have an incredible jaw dropping vintage wedding collection, though fittings & viewings by appointment only. Apparently you can also rent the space for events or classes. All around a really neat store in a really cool area of Asheville."

"This is a beautifully curated store in the heart of a really special up-and-coming shopping/arts district. Sara and her team have assembled a truly special experience that goes beyond just looking for something cool to wear. We stopped in there a few months ago with six adults and three boys, ranging in age from 6-15. We spent over an hour looking at the wares - there really is something for everyone. The teenager got an awesome leather jacket from the 70s that he wears all the time. Anyway, highly recommend House of Kismet!"
