VINTAGE  CLOTHING TERMS

Clothing which was produced before the 1920s is classed as antique clothing and clothing from the 1920s to 1980s is considered vintage.
 Retro, or "vintage style" more often than not  refers to clothing that looks like the style of a previous era.
 Reproduction, or retro, clothing is a newly-made garment  of an older style.
Clothing produced more recently is usually called  retro fashion.
Below is an example of a 50's inspired dress,not vintage,but as you can see very much in keeping with the 50's era.

Nowadays it is getting harder and harder to find genuine vintage garments,hence the need for the vintage inspired styling of today.
Our love of vintage just goes on and on,encapsulating a bygone age.
