Bobby Garnett is something of a legend in the world of vintage clothing. Designers from Ralph Lauren to Tom Ford have been spotted scouring the shelves of his South End shop and Lynn warehouse. And his vast collection has provided costumes for nearly 50 Hollywood films — including "A Bronx Tale," "A Beautiful Mind," and "Moonrise Kingdom." We recently sat down with Bobby to chat about everything from how he got his name to the unbreakable bond between music and fashion, and why there are some items he'll never part with. Here are some highlights.
