Hi All, I've searched EVERYWHERE online for information on a box of hats my great grandmother owned but to no avail. I was hoping someone on this forum could share some information with me that I could potentially use to list the hats on ebay. Most of the hats have an attached mother of pearl...

Hi: I need help with dating this shirt. Did not see a label match for it. The one that was kind of like it was blurry. The inside garment tag says its from lot # 569 style #500 XL.

Hi I could use some help with a Jantzen tee I found. Looking at the label section I think it might be 1950's, but it is in really awesome shape and I keep thinking it has to be newer. Thanks im advance for the help.

Hello! I found this lovely shawl (?) languishing in a fabric pile at an antique store, and after reading everything I could find on the forums about piano shawls, I have a couple questions. First, details: the shawl measures 54" by 54" with 16" tassels, so I think it seems a bit small for a...

Hi Everyone! I have recently purched an Alfred Shaheen dress with adorable kokashi doll prints, which has been a long-time dream of mine. :) As I examined the dress and the label closely, I noticed that its a kind of label Ive never seen before. It is the end of the first "S" letter which is...

Hi there, the tag just says Pelle / Leather. Also wondering who the designer is and what decade it's probably from. Thanks in advance!

I've had this for a while and felt I should finally find out more about it. I know the company started in 1870 and that this piece looks pretty old! Any knowledge/thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Cheers x Hey guys,

Hello all! I recently picked up this pair of vintage Salvatore Ferragamo open-toe slingback heels and I need help dating them! They are from Sak's Fifth Avenue (printed on the shoe). The serial number/size is handwritten on the inside strap. I have included some photos. On top of...

I have acquired this dress and would like to sell it, but I have no idea how to price it?? ( I don't normally sell vintage clothing) I have been researching it for days, with no luck. I can't find any dresses like it, I have found undergarments/ slips, but I didn't think they made slips in bold...

Hello lovely people! I found a floral cotton dress in an antique store that was labeled "1920s." I did not buy it because it has serged seams, but now I am wondering about it. Maybe it is a reproduction? Anyway, I have attached photos of the dress. It also has belt loops that definitely are...

Hi Does anyone have an estimated date for this hat please? Really nicely made with two layers. Shallow. I am not bad on clothing but a straw hat is not my area of dating expertise. Thanks all x

Hello I'm Kevin and i received some vintage costume jewelry after my grandmother's passing and I really don't know much about it at all. Some pieces are signed, some are not and I'm not sure where to go from here. Was wondering if anyone can help with dating, designer and or Value.Thanks!

Could someone please help with a proper name for this style of dress and an perhaps who could have designed it? I have been searching the internet for 3 days trying to find a similar style for what I believe to be a 1960 formal dress (based on colour, placement of the metal zipper and the...

Hello, I’ve found tons of information on Enna Jettick, a new-to-me designer. However, I’m still not clear about the era of these shoes. They are marked “Cush On, Enna Jettick”. 30’s or 40’s, maybe? The leather on the heels has a pink tinge, the uppers are more gray. I’m guessing it’s from...

I found an excellent condition Manon suede bag, but I’m not sure if it’s 40’s or 50’s. Can anyone help date the bag?

Hello everyone, first time posting here but a long time fan of the forum :). I've recently acquired an interesting dress that I have a hard time dating. It's possibly custom made as there is no brand label and just one tag sewn to the seam allowance, which says it's pure silk (Reine Seide)...

Red Polka Dot jumpsuit- label says 'Kawakubo high fashion and there are no other labels. Bought in Australia second hand and unknown date- is this Rei Kawakubo or just the same last name? Any ideas about dates? Just interested

hello! I found this dress and am not completely sure of date. I know this is very old. Its a lined velvet and has an uneven bottom hem. Any info would be appreciated Has clasps on side

Hi, I am not sure about the era of this dress. I think it may fit on 60s because of the pattern but the label seems quite "new", so maybe 80s? What do you think? It has an opening on the side of a leg and the zip closes in the middle of the back. It's sized as a 42 which would be as a 10 US...

Hi, I think this dress might be from 60s but still doubt a bit about if it's the right era. The fabric is quite thick and kind of puffy. It's made in Spain. Thanks!

I picked up this jacket and am thinking its from the 40s but want to get feedback to be sure if possible. Ranch craft brand. Its selvedge as well.

Hello! I just picked up this dress at an estate sale and I'm having trouble placing its era. I have a general idea, but the style of the dress isn't something I'm familiar with. It's a knit that I believe is completely hand stitched. The zipper is metal (Talon) and the teeth are smaller than...

I'm having a difficult time dating this due to some of the dress details. The older women in my life think it's before 1950s, but it's Lorrie Deb, which began in 1950s I believe. Thoughts, anyone?

I have this adorable mini circle straw top handle bag with lime green gingham lining on the inside and two matching square cloth napkins/handkerchiefs. There is no label but it looks old and I was wondering if anyone knows around when this could be from?

Hi all Elizabeth Ramos-Boyce here .... needing your help again. I did the research using the tools this site suggested. I’m pegging this play suit as 1950s. It has a metal zipper, no union tagging, just a sizing tag. It is embroidered as pictured, it also has a panty in playsuit. Skirt has...

Hello, I found this beautiful two piece gown with an ILGWU-ADCF label on it. I haven't seen the ADCF logo before, was wondering if anyone had any information on when this might have been made? This is the only tag in the dress.

I understand from reading that this dress is probably from the 40s-50s? Was hoping to narrow it down a little. I can't fit it on either of my dress forms. I could probably try it on if it's crucial to dating it. It has such an old and classy air to it. The pics don't do it justice. It comes to...

Hi, all, I have recently acquired a vintage Chanel cape or cloak and would like help in identifying its age. There is only one side-seam label, with no tape underneath or any other identifying marks on the garment (I was not able to upload a photo of the Cape, as it was apparently too big a...
