Marmions Vintage is an independent business that is part of The Atrium, on Eyre Street, Sheffield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Atrium is a collective of Sheffield-based creatives and independent business owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Partners Olivia Jeffree and Jimi Rawson recently moved to Sheffield after selling their clothes in their friend\u2019s bar in Portugal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pair have been in the business for almost seven years and usually set up stalls at festivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ms Jeffree said Sheffield\u2019s lively high streets are what drew her to set up Marmions Vintage in Sheffield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere is a really nice community of independent creative businesses here, so it is nice for us to be here among other businesses as well,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marmions Vintage offers bright and colourful vintage designer clothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ms Jeffree said: \u201cIf you like dressing up to stand out and feel great and bring sunshine to the world, then we have clothes for you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

David Saxby of Top Hat, based in the Atrium market, sells menswear on the second floor and hosts music nights here on Fridays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is a tailor who previously made clothing for celebrities and wedding customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Saxby said the location of The Atrium is what will attract customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said: \u201cIt is right in the heart of the city centre, which is quite handy because it is a seven-minute walk from the station.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marmions Vintage has been open for two months and regularly hosts music nights, with Jimi Rawson, also known as DJ Mojo, presenting his music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Rawson said the business allows every shopper to have a unique experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t know what you are going to find when you walk in; you have to explore it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Rawson said Sheffield is an ideal place for community members to embrace Sheffield\u2019s creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u201cSheffield has a good party scene with people who dress up colourful,\u201d said Mr Rawson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIdeally, in the future, we would love to expand our shop.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Atrium continues to attract customers through its community of unique traders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is onwards and upwards from here,\u201d said Ms Jeffree.<\/p>\n\n\n
