Decay Boutique
Decay Boutique is a clothingstore established in 1970 in Belgium. It’s situated on a busy road in the middle of a village, so we had to pop in quickly, unseen and silently. This last thing was a bit of a problem, the open door was stuck and made a loud screeching noise, the whole village heard us arriving already. After 8 years of exploring and hundreds of locations, this is our first abandoned clothingstore, so it’s something unique. I didn’t find any further information online, except that it got bankrupt in the summer of 2013. My pictures show you the natural decay after 7 years of abandonment. Mother earth painted the walls creatively with mold patterns. It was a humid place due to the many leaks in the ceiling after all the rainfalls. This location was not so big, only 1 floor with a personal living space at the back, but it was nice to see how natural decay done it’s work over the past years. Take a last glimp after 43 years of selling jeans and other clothing, Decay Boutique will be demolished soon…
