1970s

Any idea if this is vintage? Price point? Obsessed. It's a small & fits like glove. The fur is so soft but don't see tag stating real or not.

Hi everyone! I just bought this dress on eBay advertised as 50s. But when it came in it doesn’t have the typical metal zipper as seen on pre-1962 dresses. It also seems too short to be a 1950s dress with a skirt length of 21”. I’m not sure whether this is a 1970s dress attempting to do 50s, or...

Would appreciate your opinion on this one. It is homemade, the seams are zigzagged instead of surged. The vertical darts on shoulders, plastic buttons. The fabric is probably rayon / viscose, has that waffle like texture, this is the best way I can describe it. Would you call it it boxy? I can...

Would love to hear your thoughts on dating this one. Initially I thought this to be an 80s does 40s dress. Mainly because of the label center back placement, the label sadly was cut off. No sign of care labels in other places though, which could point out to an earlier date. This is probably a...

What are your thoughts on this one? I usually find pussy bow blouses and dresses from the late 1970s - early 1980s era. But isn’t the silhouette on this one is more of a 1960s style? Could it be early 1970s then? It is knee length and probably homemade, no tags. Also 99% chance it is a European...

When I got this gown I immediately thought it’s a 70s does edwardian, prairie dress. However I could be wrong, what are your thoughts? It’s definitely homemade, white and yellow mesh (or lace?), the lining was orange at first but washed out into a peachy pink color. (lots of color bleeding from...

Hello! I recently acquired this beautiful Yves St Laurent dress but I cannot find too much information online. Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

When I found this safari (or military uniform?) shirt initially I thought it is from the 70s. However this style was also popular in the 1940s. So how to tell if it’s 70s or earlier? It lacks any tags but is very well made and in a great condition. I believe the fabric is cotton or other natural...

I was about to list this Perry Ellis skirt and looked up the label--It's not in the VFG label resource (happy to add it upon confirmation of my suspicions). It is unlike any Perry Ellis Portfolio labels I've ever seen. A cursory Google search says he established an earlier PORTFOLIO label while...

Hello everyone! Newbie here, I recently had the good luck to come across this gorgeous dark green leather HALSTON coat from the 70's It doesn't have a size label. I am not sure if this was intentional as some of us ladies were a tad figure conscious? Or perhaps it was a sample from the talented...

Hello! I recently found a gorgeous London Fog coat that appears to be from the 70's (dagger collar and label indicate this). It's made from "cimarron cloth " a sueded rayon that has a velvet feel. I have researched the coat and the material many different ways but I can't find anything remotely...

Hi y'all! I've come across this 3 piece set in an estate sale. I'm trying to identify the year (or general vintage age) of the set and hopefully a more specific maker. The only label is "EF EUROFASHION", made in England, which I've come to understand is a collective of other brands, not an...

Hello all! First I'd like to say thank you to everyone here on VFG. I've only just signed up but I've been using it as an absolutely brilliant resource for a long time. I don't know where I'd be without this site! I've got this lovely little needlecord Laura Ashley dress, among my many LA...

Vintage for the whole family! Antique to the 80's.

Hi, I'm pretty new to buying vintage and Gunne Sax in particular and wanted some help in identifying this label. I've read that labels like this were used for dresses made in the late 70s - 90s and wanted to know how to note distinctions between the decades!

Would someone be able to help me in identifying this fabric? I'm trying to find something in a similar pattern/color scheme.

I have a 1940s style sweater sewn up with either nylon or olefin thread and I'm wondering if it is 70s or 40s.

Any ideas as to decade / years?

Hi, I have a Pierre Cardin dress that has the above label (green / multicolor garment). I've found other labels that are takashimaya (red garment) but have yet to see any that have my label. Wondering if anyone has come across a label similar to mine or knows anything about the abbreviation. I...

I have no idea when this is from. 60's maybe? The skirt is one layer with a transparent liner sewn in. The sleeves have zipper closures as well as the back of the dress . The back also has some metal button closures. Thanks for the help :)

Recently got this dress. I tried to get one picture of the entire thing but it was simply too long. The train is easily 5/6 feet long. Button closures all down the back with a zipper at the bottom. There are also two metal clasps at the top of the neck. Veil is very long and attached to pearl...

Hello all, I recently acquired a handbag from a family member and have no idea of how to identify what leather/skin it is. I am a handbag lover, but unfortunately have very little knowledge on vintage items! The only background information I have on the bag is that it was purchased in the...

Looking for this beautiful maxi floral striped wrap/tie dress from Oscar de la Renta. Has ruffled lace edge details and puff sleeves. Any idea what year this could be from or if anyone knows I could find one would be super helpful! I haven't been able to find ANY other photos of this dress...

This piece has me stumped. It is a silk velvet fabric identical to a silk velvet 1930's opera coat I own but I'm a little unsure about this piece being 1930's itself. It has a loose fit with no closure and a shirring elasticated gathered waistband as pictured. Also, it has serged / overlocked...

Hello there! I'm just trying to date this sheer chiffon dress. Only label is Lepia's - I have found that Lepia (without the 's ) have trademark registered 1979. Both overlocked and hand stitched seams, lovely vintage button on neck - this has "rs" on ? Thanks so much! Allison Moon Muse Vintage

I can't seem to find any comparable pieces by Gantner & Mattern. Im guessing 1970s from the label and zipper, but not sure. Has anyone seen a similar piece from them? It looks like a lot of swim and sportswear.

Long shot, but if anyone recognises this label at all I would be very grateful! From a beautiful prairie dress, possibly 70's or 80's

Hi, I have a Gunne Sax dress that looks like it can be dated to the early 1970s. I have done some research online, but I'm curious as to tell how "rare" one of these dresses are. I have found similar ones priced online for anything from 75$ to 200$, but I have also seen others listed as "rare"...

I recently stumbled across one of my grandmother's coats. She claims to have purchased it for 400 Pounds in London in 1974. The label says "Lampert London: Makers of Fine Clothes, Made in England, Pure Wool". I haven't heard of this brand before and couldn't find any information about it online...

I found these old Levi's at a thrift store the other day. A score, in my opinion, even if they don't fit! As far as dating goes, I know they have to be 1971 or later since there's a lowercase e, and I'm leaning 70's because of how ultra high waisted they are. They have no pockets and no outside...
