    "Gum Lined"??? vintage dress help!

    I picked up this really pretty dress in Manhattan the other day. The only label I found was under one of the thin shoulder pad linings (I'm guessing that's what it is, the insides were disintegrated). It states Macy Associate's Supremacy Double Covered Gum Lined 82D Demi EG 3 E5 I cannot figure...

    Vintage 80's: What trends have you noticed?

    I'm pretty young...I'm 22 and was born in 1990. I worked at Urban Outfitters and American Apparel and in high school, I got hooked on 80s because it was so crazy and out there (which is what I adore 70s, which a lot of people here don't seem to excited about). Fashion is more and more about...

    Is this Lillie Rubin dress 70s or 80s?

    I thought so :) I'm still trying to remember when she moved to central Florida... I also wonder how long this label was used into the 80s since both of the labels in the resource like this are 70s :)

    Is this Lillie Rubin dress 70s or 80s?

    I'm just looking for opinions on this dress. My Grammy worked at a Lillie Rubin in the late 70s or early 80s...I know that she lived in Miami at the time but I'm unsure which decade to peg this dress. http://vintagefashionguild.org/label-resource/rubin-lillie/ ^The tag is the same as the two...

    Help with pricing two delicious polyester pieces

    Oh wow, that's great to know guys! This makes me excited n_n I'm so glad I pulled that dress (and everything else) out of consignment. That lady way underpriced my stuff and I was desperate and ended up with two dresses and some shirts just completely missing :( So I'm glad this dress came back...

    Help with pricing two delicious polyester pieces

    So I got two neat pieces I bought for myself. But I'm not sure if I want to keep them and I'm pondering reselling them in my Etsy store (no links, no worries n_n) However, I'm wondering if it would be worth the hassle. I don't really sell clothing in my store so if I list something, I want it to...

    other buyers buy my stuff and resell :-(

    First off, this thread is very informative! Thanks for posting it. My bf sells a lot of older videogames and such and we have seen the same thing happen with our stuff. We still made a profit but sometimes it really is hard to see somebody make more. I keep telling him to list things at the...

    4 clutch bags

    Well, no negative feedback and the seller seemed to be understanding. But sometimes eBay really scares me since, if I remember correctly, sellers can only leave neutral or positive. Although I may be wrong. I'm obviously okay on Etsy as I have 100% positive feedback and nobody wants a negative...

    4 clutch bags

    I figured...I'd be tempted to buy it personally even though it is missing that pearl (that's the only imperfection visible from just carrying and it's not someting one sees on first glance). But I know collectors want pristine condition. Oh yes, I think the price is too high there too. But...

    4 clutch bags

    Well, with the garay bag, there is one pearl missing on the clasp, unfortunately, along with some tarnish on the underside of the clasp and a few glue marks on the inside lining. The flower clutch, however, is in fantastic condition. I may try the 'best offer' for the Garay on eBay as that...

    I've used the label resource before and have tons of thigns I'm selling or have kept for myself that I can add but I don't know how to date soem of them quite yet. I guess I'll get to that! I really have so many things I want to add to the label resource...even modern thigns that aren't vintage...

    4 clutch bags

    Oh awesome! I just love how knowledgeable everybody is here. I actually thought the clasp on that one reminded me of a 50s brooch. I'm so excited! I'll def be bookmarking the Bag Lady site as I've never heard of it and I know it'll be of use with a few other purses I have lying around. Thank you...

    4 clutch bags

    I hope nobody minds if I ask for any other opinions, especially on the Escada. I still need to also figure out how to price these. It seems a lot of clutches online are just defaulted to the wrong decade.

    Weird-print Rayon Tops

    I call it joy but my boyfriend calls it a weird obsession...I LOVE weird rayon tops and I can't get enough of them. I'm a 42.5 bust and quite often I find my rayon stuff to be nice and loose on me. Perfect in the Florida heat. My favorite shirt is a nice and airy tribal-type print rayon shirt...

    First off: hello and thanks for letting me sign up for your community! I've been browsing the VFG website for a while now. I'm very new to vintage selling and I'm rather young so I wasn't alive to even recognize a lot of things :) ANYWHO, my mother gave me 4 clutches she wants me to sell for...
