Description

Elsie & Fred London Calling trousers combine Union Jack motifs and graphic faces in a vivid pink, purple and red collage print. The design runs across both legs, with changes in scale and colour creating a different view from the front and back. A low-rise waist and a fitted leg that opens into a bootcut hem give the print a distinctly Y2K-inspired setting.

This is a modern style inspired by early-2000s dressing. The listed fabric is stretch jersey, while the photographs show a close fit through the upper leg and a wider opening at the ankle. Exact fibre percentages have not been recorded. The coordinating top in the model photograph is a styling reference; this listing is for the trousers only.

How to wear London Calling

For an everyday look, pair the trousers with a plain black ribbed tank and chunky black shoes. The dark top provides a quiet edge around the busy print, and the low-rise waist remains part of the outfit. A small black shoulder bag keeps the rest of the look simple.

For evening, pick up the purple areas with a plain purple camisole, then add a short black jacket and an ankle boot. Keep the jacket above the widest part of the leg so the bootcut shape stays visible. One silver-toned necklace is enough alongside the collage.

For a lighter combination, try a fitted white tee and an open, cropped denim jacket. Plain trainers can keep the outfit relaxed. Choose the tee length according to how much of the low-rise waistband you want to show; the photographs do not establish the same fit on every wearer.

I had a really good experience at Quirk. Its located in DTLA which is known to give you headaches with parking. Luckily there were several fairly priced garage options on the same block. The shop is located on the second floor of this cool, early 20th century style building. I love vintage buildings so I was hyped before I even stepped into Quirk. But once inside I was really digging the vibes. They have a really selection of vintage, modern clothes for women and men. With assistance of the curator, Melynda, I was able to grab a few items for an upcoming headshot session. I didn't have to break the bank as the items I purchased were from a $20 rack. I will def go again. I highly recommend checking it out.

As an enthusiast of cool articles of clothing from from then to now and back again, I discovered a gem in dtla called Quirk!  Co-owner Melynda always creates the best experience whenever I stop by...much like like visiting a friend and unlike some vintage shops there's always something new in rotation.  Do yourself a favor folks and stop by!

Upon having dinner in DTLA a friend and I stumbled upon QUIRK, what a treasure of a vintage store. A hidden gem!!! An insider's secret.. but not for long. Loved Melynda's eye for well curated vintage clothing and accessories. Working as a stylist in Films and Editorial, Melynda is defintely on point.  Instantly we felt right at home in her inviting shop. From designer to hard to find vintage, its all there. What a happy find!!!

Went by on a Saturday with my daughter.  Melynda was awesome and helpful, as always.  We both found things we needed.  What I appreciate about Melynda is the personal service and how she honestly cares about if something is "right" for you or not.  She actually mended something I had just bought right on the spot (wouldn't let it leave with an almost loose button)!  Appreciate her sense of style and will defiantly be headed back.

Service was excellent I was recommended with a well thought of outfit. Melynda a stylist and the owner was kind enough to take care of the details. The variety of curated designs are also exceptional from vintage 60's to early 2000's. The prices here is relatively reasonable given the fact that they provided guidance in styling that works for me.

This is Amazing what Melynda  with Quirk has done to help the residents of the LA Fires! She jumped in without hesitation and put her own biz in hold to help others in need.  Taking in donations from everyone kindly donating including myself gathering toiletries and rolling racks with the help from the   people in my home town Santa Barbara! 
She created a Free shopping boutique with very stylish clothes , shoes, handbags and also stuff for kids! 
Also added in Hair and facial services so people can feel good during these trying times! 
She's amazing and thank you for everything you are doing! You Rock girl!!! 
Many continued blessings to you!!

Quirk is the kind of place you walk into and immediately feel like you've inherited the wardrobe of a rich, eccentric aunt who traveled the world and kept all the best pieces. Every rack feels intentional, lived in, and full of personality. Nothing feels random. Each item has a story, and you can sense it the moment you start browsing.

The bag selection alone is worth the stop. There are so many standout pieces that feel like true finds, not just resale. The kind of bags you don't see twice.

What really makes this place special is the owner, Melynda. She's genuinely fun to talk to and clearly passionate about what she curates. You can tell there's pride and care behind every piece in the shop. Talking with her about vintage fashion and the stories behind the items made the experience feel personal, not transactional.

This ended up being one of the coolest spots I stumbled into in the fashion district. If you appreciate vintage that feels curated and soulful rather than picked over, Quirk is a must.

I volunteered at Quirk all afternoon today, and there is so much love and support alive in that space. They are overwhelmed with so many incredible donations and every single thing is being sorted and placed directly into the free shop where fire victims can come shop and get what they need. All items are the same quality you would find in a thrift store like Buffalo Exchange. There were volunteers helping people find clothing items that fit and served their needs while they’re grappling with the loss of their homes and belongings. There are so many ways fire victims need support and this is one of them! Thank you Quirk and the other amazing organization and businesses stepping up to help our community!

I highly recommend supporting this local business. The owner Melynda has been so generous in helping out fire victims by creating a pop up free clothing boutique, and volunteering her time there. She definitely has a strong eye for fashion and a heart of gold, so I recommend stopping by and supporting her shop!
