About American Graffitti, Women's and Men's Retro and Vintage Clothing.

Welcome to American Graffitti, we have two bright colourful funky shops based in the Northern Quarter area of city centre Manchester. We opened our first shop in 1982 in the iconic Afflecks Palace (now known as Afflecks). We are still going strong today and in September 2005 opened our flagship shop around the corner on Hilton Street.

Both our shops have an amazing range of vintage, retro, fancy dress, accessories and home-ware. We specialise in quirky and unusual items. We pride ourselves on the fact that all our stock is hand picked (not bought in quantity by the truckload). Every garment is lovingly laundered, dry cleaned and presented to perfection and is ready to wear. No nasty smells in our shop! We only sell the best quality.

Our clients range from people wanting outfits for 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s theme nights, TV Production companies, Manchester theatres’, Am dram, costume designers, students, stylists to the stars and celebs themselves. Everybody’s welcome, we have wonderful friendly staff who are happy to style and advise if needed. They are very knowledgeable about what people wore in the various different eras and love recreating the styles.

We hope you can visit us soon, we promise you won’t be disappointed; we look forward to seeing you. Click here for a 10% discount voucher.
