MINIPNG

MINIPNG is a vintage clothing and contemporary fashion boutique located at 9 Edwards Street in New Haven, Connecticut. Founded by designer Eiress Hammond and formally established as an LLC in 2020, the store specializes in carefully curated vintage pieces from the late 1990s and early 2000s alongside Hammond’s original handmade designs and hand-painted artwork. The business began as an online venture on social media platforms before expanding to a brick-and-mortar storefront on Audubon Street in September 2022, and later relocating to its current Edwards Street location. Beyond retail, MINIPNG actively contributes to the community through collaborative events such as Offline on Audubon, a seasonal market featuring multiple vendors, local artists, and opportunities for pet adoptions from local animal shelters. Hammond’s vision for the store extends beyond shopping—she emphasizes creating a welcoming space where customers can connect, explore art, and experience creative expression.
