Marvellous Maxis Looking for maximum style? Maxis are a versatile wardrobe staple, seamlessly combining comfort and elegance. Draping gracefully to the ankles, or even the floor, their flattering silhouette suits different body types, and they are ideal for a variety of occasions, from casual...

I don't have experience with this either. I agree that it is crocking, and would start with brushing it. I haven't used a suede protector spray, which is designed to keep water out of the suede, but I can imagine trying it as a way to keep the powder from wrecking your clothes. If it works, it...

Stunning variety this week! The video is up on YouTube and other social media now (click to view):

Would you please show the labels? And are these men's or women's? Are they cropped in length?

Love it! Such an Ungaro bright lime green! The label is quite like the one used in a 1990s tie in our Label Resource https://vintagefashionguild.org/resources/item/label/ungaro-emanuel/ and if the skirt is short as you say, I'm inclined to think this is early 90s.

I LOVE THAT Sarah!!!

From Pierrot to Beetlejuice: The Allure of Black and White Dig it in dots. Strut it in stripes. Rock it out in checks, plaid or graphic blocks. There’s simply no wrong way to wear iconic black and white. Even a pop of another hue just turns up the volume on this color combination’s basic...

This looks so Christmas-y!

I love that! I believe it is silk noil. https://vintagefashionguild.org/resources/item/fabric/silk-noil/ The theme and style looks 1950s-era to me. That gold over print seems to mostly date from that time.

This is from the Jacksonville Journal, March 27, 1955

This one I remember finding harder to pin down than other manufactured fibers. I don't know if you read my entry on it: https://vintagefashionguild.org/resources/item/fabric/acrylic/. There seems to have been a stretch of time before it was incorporated into manufactured fabric—perhaps delayed...

The label doesn't get any clearer I'm afraid, but it definitely doesn't show the sewing machine of the newer labels. I did hear from one person on Reddit that said that Filson used older union labels. I don't know his references. I just have to say that the union label predates the possibility...

Thank you!

This week's video is up and it's all decked out! Click to view

This looks like late 50s to me, bouclé wool. I love it too! I couldn't find an ad with the same coat by Donnybrook.

Paging @furwise, if you have time, our guest needs some help with fur ID. Per forum rules, we can not provide valuation.

Well, if you'd like to reweave it, more power to you! It sounds like a minimal issue that many of us would simply disclose in selling it.

This is not my typical find and I've been doing research and am stuck on a point. It's a Filson Cruiser I believe. I found ads for Filson Cruisers dating from 1957 in the same 85% wool 15% Orlon blend. From Eugene Guard, 9/5/57 Orlon was introduced by Dupont in the early 1950s, yet this...

What size is the hole and where is it?

Thank you for sharing this Laura! This is definitely a spectacular collection, including a 1917 Chanel embroidered coat. I think my favorite is Denise Poiret's alphabet smock but I wouldn't turn down this Balenciaga gown in bright pink.
