How to Know If It's Vintage

Here it finally is! I had SO much trouble filming this video, I literally filmed it 3 times, because I had the most difficult time finding good lighting... and this was the best I could get, sigh!

This is just for that beginner, wanting to gain a few ideas on how to date vintage. It's not hard, but it does take time to train the eye. Don't use this video as your only example! Do your homework, and study for yourself the differences between vintage and modern... most likely, you'll even enjoy yourself! ;)

Love you guys!

Omg this video just sucked me in!

So fascinating and informative.

Keep up the wonderful work :)

If a garment says "Made in China" for Target or any of the modern stores, that is a dead giveaway that it is not vintage. Clothing you bought was usually made in the country you lived in. Enjoyed your info!

your so CUTE ! (:

I would like to add a lot of old clothes were hand made. I know that my grandmother didn't believe in buying clothes(probably having to do with being the middle child of 7 in the depression. I'm wondering how you can tell out side of tags, style and zippers.

[ShushLorraine]

There are so many comments, so this may have already been said. Most likely the reason that there were only buttons during the 40s, and zippers before and after had to do with the "war effort". I've heard many stories of even elastic not being available, that people made elastic out of strips of rubber tire. Automobiles were not built during the war. It stands to reason that zippers were not made. Factories were converted to building for the war. What patriotism!

Were clothes better made and more tightly stitched in the 1950's?
