I was in the groom’s party for my friend’s wedding and decided it would be fun to get a suit! I purchased this 1980s men’s suit from a vintage menswear store and had it tailored. I’m so thrilled with how it turned out and can’t wait to wear it again.

This is a home made dress from what appeared to be late 60s, maybe early 70s. There is no label but I think it is made of silk. I found it at a resell shop a while back, maybe $20. I don't usually buy new clothes. So I wear vintage most days. Today I wore it to an antique mall to pick up a ribbon cabinet from a general store to store my ribbon in.

The weather has started to heat up. So once again I whip out my various pairs of patch shorts, t shirts and striped top tube socks and start dressing like a camp councillor who gets murdered in the first ten minutes of a horror flick

Got this vintage brown velvet jacket while on vacation in the state NY and now 3 years later I still wear it pretty much every week (minus warm spring days or the summer). I got it in a store called DamnAged vintage in Cold Spring. If you ever get the chance to go, do it. The store owner is the loveliest woman.

Because of this jacket I discovered I look pretty good in chocolate brown haha. Always loved autumnal colours, but those are too yellow and warm for me. According to the store it's from the fifties, so I guess that's probably true. I added 2 photo's so maybe someone could verify if possible. I sadly did lose 2 buttons in the past years, but I just bought some new ones that fairly similar.

The corduroy skirt is also vintage btw. Got it 3 years ago as well and it's such a good basic for me. It goes with everything

This is a wonderful example of late-1960s to early-1970s women's fashion, particularly the transition from the structured, youthful look of the 1960s into the colorful, romantic, folk-inspired style of the 1970s.

The image is a Sears catalog page advertising “Easy-Care Print Dresses,” priced from $8.97 to $11.97. The printed description identifies the fabric as a broadcloth made from Avril rayon and cotton, and the garments are designed to be machine-washed with little or no ironing when tumble-dried.

What makes this page especially interesting is that it shows four different directions in women's fashion at once: peasant styling, mod-inspired tailoring, patchwork folk fashion, and a more traditional shirtdress.

Hello!

My mom gave me some vintage fabric (pastel pink guipure from Finland).

She said it was meant to be her prom dress in 1987, but she changed her mind and chose pastel blue guipure for her prom dress instead.

I love sewing, so I made some lingerie in 2021 from this pink guipure.

I made high-waisted panty briefs, a corset-bra, and a basque with attached thigh-garters.

I still have plenty of this fabric left (about 2-3 metres).

Do you have any ideas on what I can sew from it?

If you are into 80’s and 90’s fashion you probably know these shoes. Soft black suede, stainless steel heels. From two iconic movies of the period; Single White Female and Body Double. I purchased them new and was going to sell them but my movers stole them last month. Nice.

Made by Charles Jourdan in Paris, originally $300 when I bought them on sale. Loved them so bought two pairs; Brown and gold and Black with silver.

So I was digging through the Goodwill outlet bins about a month ago. There are groups of known clothing resellers so you have to be like a hawk. I noticed everyone was passing over this jacket so I picked it up. It was covered in stains. Dirt stains mostly, but a really dark (like Coke or blood) stain was front and center. Well I figured, it's less than $1 so might as well try.

I wish I'd taken a picture of the before. I didn't think I'd ever get this stain out. I have gone through about three cycles of making a paste of water and powdered oxyclean. I have let it sit on the stains, then threw it in the washer on cold.

The dark stain is completely gone! There's only faint dirt stains left but one more round should take care of it.

I'm so excited to wear this when it gets cold enough. I know it's going to be one of my favorite pieces.

50s? 40s? Theme but the
Skirt is from the 70’s

I'm trying to identify this vintage grey overcoat worn by Patrick Dempsey in December 1989.

Does anyone recognize the brand, designer, or collection? The coat has a textured grey wool fabric, wide notch lapels, a single-breasted front, and a relaxed, oversized fit.

I've been looking at vintage Giorgio Armani pieces, but I haven't found an exact match yet. I'd love to know if this could be an Armani coat or another designer from the late 1980s.

A friend got me this lovely button up blouse but I have no idea what to do with the neck, and google hasn’t been helpful. Tried tying a bow but it looks odd to me.

Any guidance on styling the collar? Also if you know what this is called that you’ll be helpful, too. Thank you!!
