    Washing/cleaning silk

    I'm no expert, but I can darn near guarantee you that is NOT crepe de chine. It is chiffon. Crepe de Chine would be much heavier & has a denser weave. As you can see, crepe de chine is not at all see-through as your gown is. Hope this helps you - at least with the fabric ID.

    Can anyone help me date these Van Raalte Gloves, please?

    Full length - Rayon with pearly gray buttons at the wrist. I'm long & they reach all the way to my underarm. I don't see this particular label in the resources. I am leaning toward 50s, but if anyone knows better, please inform me. Many Thanks.

    Era of these Pucci skirts? 60's or 70's?

    Nothing about Pucci from me, but I do know that size 2 & 4 were available in the 60s because I wore them c. 1965. High end stuff.

    Fake Vintage labels or Sewing Labels into Vintage

    Hi y'all - A few years back, I had a link to wither a blog or a website that was a pretty detailed resource for spotting fake or sewn-in vintage labels. Pretty sure it came from VFG..? It showed the labels as they were originally sewn in for comparison. Do any of you have the link to that...

    Hello - I'm back Among the Vintage Living. :-)

    Thanks so much, Mary Jane. That's very kind of you. I figured the 'fixes' out. It HAS been a long time since I was last here. I am on etsy only these days. I have a fab website, but I forgot my pw and can't seem to figure out how to get it back. duh - some things never change.

    Interesting Info about Rayon

    Sarah-Jane, Where did you find that pic of my next ex? :wacko:

    trying again

    I concur with early 60's. It was very common to have 3" or hems in "good" dresses then. I remember my Mom always put at least a 3" hem in all the dresses she made for both of us.

    On a final note, I hope the fact that I only searched on eBay to make these won't offend anyone. I can always remove that info & repost them if that's what I need to do to stay out of trouble. I will post some more examples in a day or three.

    A Question About Vendor Sizes

    Yep. The more I look at it, the more I agree. The vanity fair label info had me confused. Thanks very much, Ladies! Off to revise.

    A Question About Vendor Sizes

    Thank you in advance. Do any of you know when vendors / designers stared including XS in their sizing? I have a Vanity Fair Leopard print (yum) nightie & the label matches a 1950's ones here, but the XS size tag is throwing me. Here's my tag. I'll check back soon. Right now...

    Wanted: White 50's-60's pumps

    Melody - Thank you. Those are adorable, but I don't want any trim on them. Just plain. DCD - a vintage 9.5 just might work. The inner foot bed needs to be 10.25" if that helps. If they're narrow it can be a tad longer, so they might be perfect! Well, unless there is a teensy baby blue...
