Vintage is what?

Vintage is what? Previously, this term was used in winemaking and meant a mature, aged wine. But relatively recently the concept migrated to the world of fashion. Nowadays vintage things are understood by those who were made long ago, in another era. They carry in themselves its style and mood. They have passed the test of time and have not lost their relevance and charm.

Vintage is a special style. These are not just stuck things of many years ago. They are distinguished by an ideal condition, many of them are made by hand. Now especially fashionable are things in the style of the 20-ies of the twentieth century: dresses, handbags, hats, ornaments. You can buy them in fashion stores, and in picturesque flea markets.

The idea to turn fashionable hits of the past years into a new onestyle originated in London in the early 70-ies of the twentieth century. Industry at this time massively produced fashionable, but the same clothes. Therefore, for the aesthetes and bohemians, the first vintage salon - the legendary Biba - was opened. The models sold there were in the style of the 1930s.

Vintage clothing is a retro thing, itemswardrobe (either original, or stylized antique.) A vintage accent in the guise should be one. This style does not tolerate incontinence and accidents. All the details must be thought out and perfectly matched to each other.

Dress vintage should clearly be associated withfashionable era, to be recognizable by style. For example, in the 1920s in the fashion were geometric outfits with a low belt, in the 1940s - broad-shouldered tweed jackets, in the 1950s - lush skirts-bells. Separate trends of those times have become classics - dresses-shirts, patterns of Burberry, etc.

Genuine vintage - it's things produced notlater than 1980. In the West and in the United States, they prefer clothes that were not released until the 1950s. A special trend of the vintage market is the costumes of film legend. For example, toilets of such fashion icons as Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Onassis, Audrey Hepburn, Marlene Dietrich. Vintage fabrics have a distinct style of their fashion period. Of these, sew on authentic old patterns or use very modern styles. All the resulting objects on the output fit well into this style.

Pseudo-vintage is clothing and accessories created byfrom artificially aged materials. It is often difficult to distinguish an original thing from a stylized one. Clothing in this style is produced by almost all famous fashion houses, not to mention individually working stylists and tailors.

There is also a combined vintage. Under it we mean clothes that were made using modern materials and genuine vintage fabrics and accessories. Besides this, there is a stylization of a-la vintage - these are quite modern collections, in which the ideas, silhouettes, drawings, decorations, decorations, cuts of clothes of the past were taken as a basis. Now almost all designers beat this topic. Even in Russia, you can find shoes, sewn on the patterns of the 1870s.

Vintage dresses can be seen on the starsHollywood, because they are exclusive and expensive. For example, one of the rare vintage dresses from Dior, created in 1954, Natalie Portman wore in 2012 to receive the Oscar, than attracted the incredible attention of collectors.
