Habengood Copenhagen couple Michael Staginnus and Helle Vilsbaek took a leap of faith about six years ago, quitting their jobs and opening a rambling store in Svaneke filled with midcentury flea-market finds (bar carts, glazed ceramic vases), vinyl records, vintage toys (windups and model cars) and — in a nod to Staginnus's former life as a teacher — pull-down school maps.

Male model John Hein defies every stereotype that comes with the title: He was discovered at a flea market when he was 22 (which is much older than most models when they're scouted), he doesn't really care about social media (even though his Instagram is laugh-out-loud-worthy), and he actually prefers to be behind the camera, rather than in front of it.

Reynolds's previous books have been young adult novels (most recently "All American Boys," co-written with Brendan Kiely), and he has perhaps lowered the stakes too much for a younger audience: Genie can come across as a bit naïve, and his adventures — including an attempt to trap a barn swallow and a trip to the flea market to sell peas with Grandma — are rather tame.

When I step on that plane in October and leave the United States for the first time since I arrived 16 years ago, I will think of the bustling flea market on 41st Street and Union Avenue in Flushing, and of the smell of freshly made spicy tteokbokki rice cakes in Korean eateries along Northern Boulevard that I pass on my way to the 7 train.

It reveals itself to you upon your digging through a scary flea market bin of mismatched wooden blocks to spell out the name of your best friend's new baby, or needing a gift for your boss and finding a weird warped Bulgarian disco nightmare record on the free rack outside the library with a guy on the cover who looks exactly like your boss.

The mostly female team eats lunch together every day in what Ms. Aiche called "the conference room" but actually is the backyard, furnished with a large brass table from the Rose Bowl Flea Market and comfortable chairs — a spot also used for snacks of vegan, gluten-free chocolate chip cookies from Erin McKenna's Bakery, a short drive away, or an end-of-day glass of rosé or tequila.

He read from the spines of gray plastic cartridges he'd spent two decades collecting: Spy Hunter, with its Peter Gunn theme, which he got for Christmas in 1987; Jaws, which he picked up at a flea market with his mother in Rahway, New Jersey, a year or two later; Zelda II, a game he had his parents order from the Sears catalog in 1988, a game he cried over because it took forever to arrive.

The next year, the owner of the Boston Red Sox bought the newspaper, along with the Boston Globe , from the New York Times Company for seventy million dollars, only to unload the T&G less than a year later, for seventeen million dollars, to Halifax Media Group, which held it for only half a year before Halifax itself was bought, flea-market style, by an entity that calls itself, unironically, the New Media Investment Group.

But that's not true, according to the experts we spoke with — including DJs, record store owners, and general vinyl geeks — all of whom assured us that you don't need more than a turntable and a pair of powered speakers, or speakers with a built-in amplifier, to get started (Audioengine powered speakers, like the A2+ model on this list, are a good brand to start with, according to DJ Prestige of Flea Market Funk).

There are 42 frames in the collection I designed for Tura and I really try to rotate them all in to my looks, but that's a lot to keep organized, so I have three or four pairs of sunglasses and a couple pairs of glasses on there currently: an aviator in navy and gold; vintage-inspired wrap aviators in both silver and gold metal; a big pair of Jackie O-style glasses that I just adore, and two frames for reading or working at the Flea Market Flip workshop.

Armani has never been much for hanging art on his walls — "distracting," he says — and the objets arranged on the low Asian-influenced tables and painted étagères in the living areas are a mix of the precious and the sentimental: a marble bust picked up in the local flea market ("to me, it resembles Seneca"), a collection of 19th-century pharmacy bottles from Tunisia ("charmed away, for a price, from a man who looked about 120 years old"), a stone lion from the 1700s purchased at the Marché aux Puces outside Paris.

Yet it remains the more outlandish and idiosyncratic designs that mark Ms. Bode as an American original since, after all, it requires a particular kind of gumption to create men's wear inspired by one's interest in collecting cardboard milk bottle caps and old pennies (both of which the designer inserted into transparent PVC raincoats stitched up in grids); turn woolly stuffed animals into slippers; imprint monochrome images of baseball cards on shirts; and repurpose a flea market tablecloth find as a jacket embroidered with a map of Robinson Crusoe's island.
