History

Owners Nicola Sault and Andrew Duckmanton opened the doors of the Surry Hills store in 2001 and have built an amazing following of customers, from the fashionistas, celebrities and style hunters to the fabulous customers who visit every week looking for that gem that perfectly fits their personality and style.
Grandma's second store, in Gould Street Bondi Beach, opened in 2006 and provides the same gorgeous mix of international vintage for those who live deeper in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs as well as the many visitors that Bondi Beach attracts.

Grandma's have also been developing the Grandma's Altered State label over the last 3 years - a mix of gorgeous vintage inspired pieces coupled with contemporary design made out of vintage fabrics. Made in limited runs, and all being unique and completely individual, these pieces are highly sought after and loved by all our customers and provide that fantastic mix of being sensitive to Mother Earth, through fabric recycling, and something unique and special that others cannot buy.

Our philosophy is that people are now after a more unique and independent mix of fashion than the mass-market offerings, something that creatively stands out in a way that suits their individuality and style - something special that others can’t find, something that Grandma Takes A Trip delivers across the board.
