People of 2Morrow is a dazzling vintage clothing boutique in the heart of Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Buying and selling carefully curated vintage clothing, jewelry and other accessories for women and children, People of 2Morrow offers unique clothes that are affordable and beautiful. The shop is the brainchild of Sybil Domond, who explained what makes her particular business so unique.
“I’m born and raised in New York. I’ve been here all of my life and it’s been a beautiful experience, being in New York,” she shares. “And I’ve been in fashion for 20 years.”
When Domond started her family, she and her husband quickly realized that they had a passion for creating and re-imagining items for renewed use.
“Got married, had a baby, renovated a house and saw that we really loved [capturing] vintage and curating a worldly dynamic [in] Brooklyn that we felt that was missed,” says Domond. “So this is our store. Everything that’s in the store is curated with a refined eye and has to be a favorite in some way.”
At People of 2morrow, Domond gets to interact with the public and they are open and interested. The typical People of 2Morrow customer asks questions.
“People love to hear about where it came from and making sure it’s fair trade,” Domond shares. She also gets to see customers bring in great vintage clothes and walk out with something new. “I love the fact that I get to see the community as I come in and sell old belongings that really meant something to them. I love seeing it rejuvenated and brought back to life. I love the excitement of seeing those people sell their clothes and be able to walk out with something really special.”
“You don’t have to break the bank to come into the store and find something unique,” she continues.
People of 2Morrow is in a great location. On the corner of Franklin and Oak in Greenpoint, Domond is in the heart of a thriving arts community. And from the rave reviews People of 2Morrow has gotten from both the community and media such as New Yorker magazine, it looks like it’s a perfect marriage between her business and the neighborhood.
“I love Greenpoint for the arts and music scene,” she says with a smile. “The people here are very approachable. Greenpoint is just very mellow and communal. The people here seem to be more real. You can walk to a coffee shop and people smile and say, ‘Good morning.'”
