(More customer reviews)There's no doubt about it, clothes have changed an awful lot and that is part of the reason why shopping for vintage clothes is so popular.
But along with the changes in clothes is a lack of knowledge about fabrics, fit, and different types of clothing. Add to this the many places where you can buy vintage clothes and the variety of prices and conditions and you have the need for a book like this.
Written by the owner of a vintage clothing store, this little book is an introduction to this confusing world. While the information in it won't be surprising to those who know and love vintage clothes, it's comprehensive enough that someone new to this subject can go into a vintage clothing shop and know what to look for, what is there and how it might fit.
Another great thing about the book is the way it puts clothing in context of time periods, shapes and colors. I found this one of the most useful sections of the book because it allows the reader to look for and recognize clothes of particular periods.
This book won't make you an expert on vintage, but it will go a long way towards making you comfortable exploring this rich heritage of great and unique clothing and accessories.
