About

Rag and Magpie, was previously named Queeni-B Boutique when it started life as a humble part time shop on the Ebay marketplace. Receiving fantastic reviews for vintage and alternative goodies and wholesome service, founder Bella Stefani decided to leave her job designing at a UK boutique chain and go it alone.

Bella is a magpie; a collector of things, mostly of vintage clothing and vintage accessories. She loves to share vintage and vintage influenced fashion so much It inspired her to launch what is now Rag and Magpie. When the website launched in 2008 she began working closely with independent designers to expanded the collection with an array of Indie fashion, we now sell a growing range of original vintage clothing, vintage accessories and vintage influenced fashion including 40’s Pin-up and 50’s Rockabilly ensembles. In 2010 we were renamed Rag and Magpie.

We have written an ever growing Guide to Indie Fashion to help you learn more about the Indie fashion designers in store.

Rockabilly Clothes

For those who aren’t already in the know, Rockabilly is a modern consequence of 1950’s American style injected with a Rock’n’Roll attitude; think poodle skirts and tattoos, or halter tops, polka dots and victory rolls! If you are looking to inject some butt-kicking style into your wardrobe then rockabilly is the way to go!, key elements of this look include leopard print and polka dots to nautical anchors, swallows, hearts, roses, swallows and skulls.

Pin Up Rockabilly

Pin-Up style is all about channeling the sexy style icons of the 1950’s and of the many influences from vintage fashion; Pin-up Rockabilly is one of the popular and most sought after. Mostly Pin-up revolves around lingerie and small items of clothing such as hot pants and bathing suits; clothes intended for a pin-up Rockabilly to flaunt her assets. We hunt down vintage inspired lingerie to authentic and replica 1950’s swimwear. There are new pieces added to the range all the time so don your halter neck swimsuit, pull out your rollers and release your inner Pin-Up!
