The Story Behind
Founded in 2013 in Poland by Katarzyna Janicz "Yaneetch" — MODOPOL is the embodiment of vintage elegance and quiet confidence. A former model and marketing manager for one of the world’s largest IT corporations, Katarzyna traded corporate boardrooms for treasure hunts through decades past, driven by one belief: clothes should tell stories.
MODOPOL was born from her love of vintage pieces that carry secrets, whispers of other lives, and a touch of irreverent femininity — all while honoring a deep commitment to sustainability. Each piece is a reminder that true confidence comes from wearing something no one else ever will: a one-of-a-kind fragment of history that belongs only to you, and a conscious choice to cherish fashion that’s kinder to the planet.
In 2021, this Polish gem opened its doors to the world, debuting on Etsy and instantly captivating style lovers in over 30 countries. With a consistent Star Seller badge and a flawless 5.0/5.0 rating, MODOPOL has proven that thoughtful curation and a passion for individuality never go out of fashion.
Eastern Europe’s fashion in the 80s was a quiet rebellion of creativity behind the Iron Curtain. People expressed individuality through clever cuts, quality fabrics, and timeless silhouettes. Rare packages from the West brought premium pieces that people cherished, cared for, and wore with pride. Because these clothes were treasured like gold, they’ve lasted for decades in remarkable condition. Today, these vintage gems are reminders that true quality and style never fade.
Today, MODOPOL stands as more than a shop — it’s a curated escape for those who believe in clothes with stories, pieces with soul, and the quiet power of wearing something truly unique. Welcome to the world of MODOPOL. May you find something as extraordinary as you are.
