Where in Europe can I find 2nd hand designer clothing? I am going traveling and would like to shape my trip around finding/aquiring clothing treasures, both vintage and contemporary designer pieces.

Hi Meagan,
... I found the above link at Google.com (web option)by typing into the search box "second hand designer clothes, Paris". Google found other interesting sites for me, too. You might want to Google for them.
... sounds like a fun thing to do. bon chance! P

Definitely check out the charity shops. You do have to wade through a lot to find the gems. I've found football jerseys, an antique teapot and some humurous souvenirs at charity shops in the past.

In France, the expression for the shops that sell designer second hand is "dépot vente".
Ok, sometimes designer, sometimes not, but in any case worth Googling.
(or "dépot vente vêtements de marque" ; "dépot vente grandes marques")
