[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have vintage pieces that are 100 yrs old. 
Things I purchased new? I have items from highschool, I’m mid 50s. [/quote]

Let's see your clothing item from 1926[/quote]

I’m not that poster but when I was younger I sometimes wore the slip my great aunt wore to my grandmothers wedding in the 1920s (under a dress obviously) as just a slip dress.  It was a gorgeous gold silk edged in lace.  Their underwear was nicer than our actually stuff.  She was a redhead so wanted a deep gold yellow for the dress.

I also have a nice suit that was hers from the 1940s that I used to sometimes wear.  It’s very Rosalind Russell.  She worked in the textile industry so had some nice stuff as she wouldn’t wear cheap textiles.  I also have her Harris Tweed coat but I think that one might be from the 50s.  I don’t really wear it because it’s so heavy but it’s incredibly well made.  I do wear my mom’s wool trench coat from the late 1970s which feels very Faye Dunaway to me.

The one thing I have that is really really old that I’ve never worn is some hand made lace collars from the late 19th century that are just incredible handiwork.  Occasionally I see something on a star that is similar and I want to think about putting the collar on something but I think I just wouldn’t have anyplace to wear something like that.  I should give them to my stylish funky nieces.  [/quote]
