“It’s not just a piece of clothing; it’s a piece of art.”
 

Brent Amerman’s passion for vintage fashion began while studying broadcast journalism at USC and working part-time as a model (@brentedwardvintage). After an internship at E! Entertainment and a few years immersed in the Hollywood party scene, Brent found himself unsure of what path to follow. Returning home to Texas, he began working as a buyer for Buffalo Exchange, an experience that unexpectedly reignited his love for secondhand fashion. In 2014, everything changed. Brent met his now-husband, who encouraged him to take the leap and turn his passion into a full-time business. Eleven years later, Brent is still his own boss, running Brent Edward Vintage with the same heart, hustle, and glamour that fueled his earliest days as a collector.
