Newcastle’s CATCH Market November Pop – Up!

CATCH Market is a 90s and Y2K vintage event that holds pop – up markets all over the UK and guarantee amazing vintage items from brands such as Ed Hardy, Desigual, Coach, Guess, and North face.

On November 7, Newcastle was host to a CATCH Market pop – up in Northumbria Students Union from 11am – 3pm. The event was ticketed and doors opened at 11am for early access with a huge queue looping around the Student Union before doors even opened!

There were several stalls inside, each selling unique vintage items ranging from jewellery, shoes, bags, and clothing and even a stall offering tooth gems!

Bargain bins filled with some of the best pieces from the market offered bargains for £5 and £10. There was also a clothes swap offer, where you could take ten sellable pre-loved items and receive tokens that allowed you to take items from the clothes swap area!

My favourite piece from the market was a customised Y2K denim skirt, embellished with beads and jewels and finished with a blue chiffon ruffle hemline, embroidered with sequins, giving a mermaid fishtail look!

There was also a huge selection of vintage Coach and Guess bags, with some pieces from early 2000’s collections and extremely rare.  Pieces ranged from £45 to £200+ depending on quality, design and rarity. ‘Madams Vintage’ stall was even giving away two mystery coach bags for just £1 as well as free bag charms with your purchase!

The staff from CATCH Market were all friendly and very helpful when asked about restoring some of the older bags, giving us advice about the best ways to treat aged, cracked leather!
