Scoring vintage Betsey Johnson is only half the battle of thrift store shopping – trying to find what you love in your (actual) size is usually the part that turns a good shopping trip into just a bad trip.
So good news: Betsey feels your pain, and Opening Ceremony knows an incredible deal when they see one, so they’ve paired up to introduce a new-ish range from Betsey, the Betsey Johnson Archive.
Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like: Re-makes of 35 of Betsey’s best vintage designs to launch at Opening Ceremony in NYC and LA (and some Betsey Johnson stores) this Fall.
In the meantime, you can try to hold yourself over with the vintage page on Betsey’s site. But we’re just going to send the Opening Ceremony people telepathic messages all afternoon – “Please host an 80′s dance party for the launch!”

ahhhh! my roommate and i each have a betsey remake…and i tell you she does not disappoint. yesssssssssssssss….
or you could just buy actual vintage betsey on ebay for, like, 1/4 of the price
i agree. I LOVE betsey, but its not actual vintage, so its kinda missing the point. but actually i guess close is better than nothing. Im okay with it.
