Interview with: Katie Zamprioli
Photography by: Katie Zamprioli
Katie Zamprioli dazzles the social media world with her knack for thrifting vintage items and injecting color and pattern into interiors and clothing.
Where did you grow up? How did it contribute to who you are today?
I grew up in Salisbury, a small town in Maryland. Even though I always wanted to get out and explore the world, I adore my hometown, and it definitely played a part in shaping me. The house I grew up in was built in the 1930s, and my mom filled it with beautiful antiques and art. My parents are avid thrifters, and I grew up going to yard sales and antiquing with them on weekends. They still go every weekend.
How long have you lived in LA?
I’ve been in LA for twenty years now—the longest I’ve lived anywhere. I love the diversity, the art, the culture, the fashion, the food, and the scenery.
What design eras are you drawn to the most?
I particularly love seventies and eighties design and feel that the quality of the pieces from those decades are far superior to most of the recreations you see today.
