SECOND HAND IS GRAND

Our story

About Nostalgia

Nostalgia Designer Recycle store first opened its doors in 1994. Founder Diana Matthews had worked in the fashion industry in Wellington and Auckland during the heady eighties. She spotted a gap in the market in the Bay and Hawke's Bays original designer clothing recycle store was born.

Diana (quite the dame) ran the business for 25 years until daughter Susie Devonshire took over in 2020. Susie loves sustainable fashion as much as her mum. Susie and her team offer the most eclectic selection of sustainable, beautiful, recycled designer fashion in the Bay. We source a carefully curated small range of vintage and handmade New Zealand homewares from time to time too. 

Our team love helping stylish fashion lovers (our Nostalgistas) to dress sustainably and beautifully. Nostalgia Designer Recycle happily sits alongside the beautiful shops and designer goodness in the pretty village of Havelock North in the heart of Hawke’s Bay. We stand by our proud heritage and famous reputation for quality at Nostalgia: where secondhand is grand.
