What is vintage style clothing?

By Sisi Tsoi


Vintage clothing has become such a principal style these days, you actually find most fashion high street stores do stock vintage clothing, because it's the trend for the last century or so. The kind of clothing you get these days in high st stores, typically are from the eras of the 80s and 90s, which is in fact anything made within 30 years, and not really vintage.

There is naturally recurring trend, like a 20s style dress that made in the 80s, like a pretty prom dress made in the 90s, galvanized by the 50s. Your expectation of vintage clothing ,like the condition of the clothing next to mint is normal. Since vintage clothing is in such high demand, so that the costs of real vintage is typically higher than the existing collection of new clothes of the high st. The explanation being, the feeling of vintage is to offer you the extra edge, that the new seasons collections of heavily produced clothing can't beat. You may end up wearing the unique item. The thing is, chance for us buying something actually one off is small, because some of the vintage garments were of course also massively produced!

I recall the thrill I am getting when i am on the chase for a good vintage garment, and the beauty when you discover something next to mint condition for fragment of the price. There are still wonderful clothing in the market these days. However, I lost count how frequently I purchase a vintage garment, and mess it up in the wash, or merely simply step into my oh so frail vintage lace slip - and heartaches begin. It's not just that these togs are hand-made, or even handmade ; the quality may also be very unpredictable.

So here is where vintage style clothing comes in. Recently there is a current slew of website, stores, which are imitating the real vintage clothing, but made in sizes that fit modern women, putting in an actual zipper that works, and fabric that is harder wearing for today's busy, modern women.

So hurrah for vintage style fashion, you no longer need to search in vain for the next vintage dress that is going to break your heart! So go on, feel free to search, score the perfect little 50s inspired dress for your heart's desire - and without the big pay out!
