Vintage Etailer Atelier-Mayer Closes

Vintage etalier Atelier-Mayer.com is closing. The business opened five years ago selling luxury vintage pieces dating back to the Twenties.

"Although the adventure has been truly wonderful, an opportunity has arisen to sell the business and move on to the next chapter," founder Carmen Haid told us this morning. "All of our wonderful vintage pieces are going to a very good home."

Although Haid - who named the business after her late grandmother Klaudia Mayer, an Austrian haute couture seamstress - did not confirm what her next move would be, the future looks bright.

"It is very sad to part with Atelier-Mayer.com," she said, "however, Madame Mayer is like a cat with nine lives, so watch this space - she will be back soon!"
