All About Lidow Archive

“I wanted to create a safe, fun, playful space to hold a collection of clothes that truly speak to someone; someone who's wearing clothes to have a good time and express themselves, not necessarily because it has a designer label on it.”

Life in Lidow Land

“Haile Lidow began Lidow Archive in honor of her lifelong fashion affair. Lidow has always lived life in color, brazenly forging her own path in the fashion industry and overcoming assumptions or judgement. Growing up, she often felt like an outlier in her technicolor outfits and bold adornments, but with Lidow Archive, she has created a world where anything goes.”

How I Got That Look: Fashion Archivist Haile Lidow

“Her shoe collection alone, which occupies its own wing, would have Imelda Marcos biting her knuckles with envy. These days, her outfits are also her business: her Lidow Archive supplies other stylists and their clients — like Madonna and Lady Gaga—with one-of-a-kind red carpet ensembles.”

Our Ankles Are Wobbly Just Looking at Conan Gray’s 8-Inch Platform Boots

“Peeking out from underneath Gray's wide-leg trousers were the real stars of the show: a pair of silver lurex boots featuring staggering eight-inch heels and 5.5-inch platforms that would make anyone's ankles quiver from just looking at them… The embellished shoes first popped up on Marc Jacobs's runway back in spring 2017, and Gray snagged them from Lidow Archive — a vintage-clothing rental shop based in Los Angeles.”

The Library Is Open With Benny Drama and Marc Jacobs Platforms

“Full of camp, color, drag and decadence, ‘The Library Is Open’ draws from its extensive range of famously scarce Marc Jacobs platforms. In the film, there are enough pairs of Marc Jacobs shoes to warrant a classification system; in reality, the Lidow Archive has an impressive 18 pairs of Marc Jacobs platforms, with the Shoe Library having been custom-built based on their measurements to be perfectly displayed.”

That Vintage Dress on the Red Carpet? There’s More to the Story.

“‘I feel strongly about giving pieces a permanent home,’ said Haile Lidow, whose archive fills a sprawling house in Los Feliz imbued with 1990s drag spirit — a lot of hot pink, clashing prints, giant props and wigged mannequins everywhere. ‘Which is difficult, because monetarily, it would be more beneficial if I did sell, but I don’t.’”

Friends of Coveteur Share Their Favorite Halloween Costumes

“Keeping track of more than 5,000 pieces of clothing and accessories could make anyone crazy. Add in a global pandemic and making a short film, it's safe to say that being a 'Basket Case' may be more than just my Halloween costume this year! My fruity state of mind and this newly-restored Bill Cunningham headpiece led me to get naked in my garden and throw on a cornucopia of fruity accessories.”

Meet Tabitha Sanchez, TikTok’s Go-To Stylist

“My go-to for vintage is Lidow Archive. It's not somewhere you can buy from but it’s this really amazing vintage archive that had previously been based in New York but she recently relocated to LA. And I pull from her for everything, there's not a shoot or project where I don't have Lidow Archive on the rack. She has an amazing archive [and] probably the largest collection of Marc Jacobs runway shoes.”
