Product Description
The world of vintage clothing is a fun, exciting, rewarding area of collecting. This is particularly true of the fashions of 1940s, 50s, and 60s. Unlike earlier eras, these creations can be worn and enjoyed everyday. And there is something for every tastefrom the formal to the whimsical and from the chic tailored suits of the 1940s to the free-style fashions of the late-1960s.
Reader Reviews
I have been in the vintage clothing business for only about two years, so I am constantly searching for new books and information to keep me informed. I ordered this book in hopes it would be what the title says it is. Was I ever disappointed!It only has a few pages of text and the rest of it is nothing but pictures. I know this sounds like a good thing, but the dresses were not even on dress forms or mannequins! I go to more trouble than that when I put my merchandise in 3-day auctions. The descriptions were generic, dates vague and prices unrealistic. There were several words, namely file (meaning faille) and stripped (meaning striped), that showed up not once, but throughout the book. I thought everyone had spell check! I am surprised that Schiffer would publish it. I have always relied on their reference books, but I cannot, with any conscience, recommend this one.
