Hey everyone! So I picked up this beautiful dress for only 3 bucks at the local salvo. It's in near perfect condition other then some wear on the belt. I've been getting better at picking up clues and I want to say this is from the 1970s based on the draped plunging neckline. The union label...

Hi there! I've come into possession of a load of ex-theatre clothing dating from 1920s to more modern. I don't know much about men's clothes though so I was hoping someone might have a rough date for this piece as the labels have been taken out at some point in its life I've taken photos of...

*Edited to remove link Here is an album of pictures. I believe it's vintage because the tag is very faded, the hems have a lot of excess fabric, it's unlined, and it has the high neck and similar shape of late 60s or early 70s mini dresses. I'm super new to vintage so correct me if I'm wrong...

Hello! I am new to this forum— thanks in advance for your help! I am looking to date this cute little straw-type cap I picked up. It looks like some sort of ladies sports cap with the grommets and style of the hat. From the stitching and look of the label, I'm thinking pre-50's, but I'd...

I have just acquired a vintage qipao stated to be from the 1920s, but I am not well-versed in this genre of vintage fashion and need help determining the date. It feels like silk on the outside as well as the lining, and the sequins may be gel sequins (but I haven't water-tested). There are no...

Not sure if this top is truly vintage, though it looks like it to me. It has a barb through the tag, though I think that might be from another reseller, I seriously doubt that is a original tag barb, it in no way looks new. . Just a guess. Not saying it is super old, but curious as to just what...

Hi guys, I am new to the forum and I am here for some help. I found this little treasure in a thrift shop in Bulgaria! So happy! Can you please help me identify and date it? My best guess is that it's some kind of basketball jacket/vest combo from the 70s? It's got quite a basebally look about...

Hello everyone. Anyone have any idea how old this gorgeous hat might be? It's a foldable, fan style wide brim sun hat that is a little shorter brimmed in the back. The frame is made out of very thin bent pieces of wood (bamboo?). The fabric is dusty rose pink, sheer, super thin and...

I was needing help identifying this dress. I spent hours searching and tried google image, but haven't had any luck. It is an extremely heavy and thick material. The back has an open cut out or laser cut out. The tags have been cut out so there is not even a tag telling me for sure what kind of...

Hi There Everyone, This coat is a bit puzzling to me. It is London Fog and looks to me like it's from the 1980s, but I'm not sure. It has brass buttons with "Canada" and anchors which seems official but it definitely doesn't look like military 'issue'.... Any thoughts? Thanks for any direction...

Hi All, I'm a relatively new collector and have been eyeing this dress. It's listed as a 20s, 30s piece but thought it could be earlier. It reminds me of a Titanic-style. That's velvet around the waist and collar. Thank you!
