Clothing:By Period:1970's:Ball:Prom:Formal:Deep Blue:Sparkling:Gown
This 70's early 80's ball gown is a knockout. Perfect for a fairy princess on her way to the prom. All that's needed is a Prince and a glass slipper and you're good to go. It has yards and yards of semi sheer mid-night blue organza (poly?) which is literally covered in mini sparkles of every color, silver, pink, blue, green and mauve.

$45 USD ReducedREDUCED Vintage costume Jewellery Demi Parure Set-Unusual Styling-Pretty in Pink
Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Demi Parures:Brooch:Earrings:Sets
I hadn’t seen anything like this awesome set before I stumbled across it while attending an estate sale and I’m still not sure quite what to make of them. To me, this set appears to depict pink fans ending in white marabou feathers, the brooch having eight sprays of these fans, each with it's own set of white beads that are all prong set while the matching earrings have three of these sprays. Now I ask you, is this my imagination? Don't be afraid to think so, I've been told that I'm always ...
$65 USDLate 1970's-Semi Formal Wedding Dress- Asymetrical Long Line Silhouette-
Clothing:By Period:1970's:Women's:Wedding:Semi Formal:Lace:White
This is a lovely dress for a bride who's having a less formal day or perhaps perfect for a "second time around" bride who still prefers a "white wedding". It offers a wonderful simple long line silhouette which is slimming in any language, and the soft outer net layer is lined in acetate satin. The neckline, shoulders and sleeves are sheer and as you can see in the photos the bodice has a low scoop neckline both front and back. There are 5 tiny buttons and loops that close the back and below ...
$38 USD1960's Mod Dolly Sheath Style Black Velveteen Dress
Clothing:By Period:1960's:Dress:Cocktail:Dinner:Mod:Mini
This is such a sweet dress with it's black cotton velveteen body and cuffs and it's black sheer (silk?) chiffon sleeves and rolled collar that continues down the back which you could leave free or tie it. I'd say that this sheath dress with it's length of 32" would be termed a mid-thigh mini and the styling is quite mod. There is a 19" metal zipper down the back. Measurements Bust 36" Waist 31" Hip 36" Across back 15" Sleeves 23" The length of 32" is taken through the center bust front. ...
$79 USD ReducedREDUCED 1950's Dinner/Cocktail Party Dress-Upscale-Mad Men Wiggle-Stunning XS
Clothing:By Period:1950's:Women's:Dress:Cocktail:Dinner:Evening:Hong Kong:Silk Brocade
Here is a totally upscale dress that has so many features and such detail that one can't help think that this was a professional designer/tailor dress custom made for perhaps a diplomats wife. Talk about era specific! It literally shows off it's beauty in the fabric alone. I'm no expert on fabrics but I do believe that this is a silk satin brocade, utterly luxurious!. The selvage edge reads "Fou Wah H. K. the last 2 letters obviously meaning Hong Kong. So many gorgeous garments were created ...
$19 USD ReducedREDUCED 1950's Hat-Summer Pleated Woven Straw Fabulous
Clothing:By Period:1950's:Women's:Hat:Crystal:Pleating:Cello:Straw
As usual "What'll I Wear? Vintage!" is thrilled to offer something a little different. It amazes me how the hats of the 30's-70's are still around and kicking. When manufactured they were meant to be worn. I'm pretty sure no one expected them to last 30 to 60 years plus. I love vintage! This cream/tan chapeau is made from woven celluloid straw. A 2" wide light chocolate colored ribbon is formed into tiny accordion pleats and is wound around the outside of the brim, leaving the top bare. Inside, ...
$30 USD Offers Considered1940's Fur Muff/Purse Natural Black Mink Lustrous
Clothing:By Period:1940's:Fur:Muff/Purse
Intrigue comes to mind when I view this large muff. Can't you just picture it worn with a lovely slimming vintage 40's suit with a fab peplum topped off by a big and beautiful hat so popular in those days. Why this lady might even have owned a small derringer which could easily be hidden in the roomy zippered purse. Like so many of the accessories of the day these muffs were must haves for the style conscious of the 40's. This particular mink fur piece is black tinged with dark brown and is ...
$55 USD Offers Considered1960's Dress Summer Frock Flower Power-Scrumptious
Clothing:By Period:1960's:Women's:Day Dress
Brought to you by What'll I Wear? Vintage! is this absolutely charming day dress. Makes you want to get out in the sun and breathe in the perfume of the garden. The fabric is a medium weight cotton with a good hand in a waffle type of weave, with a vertical raised pattern. The white ground of the fabric is covered in tiny black polka dots then strewn with loads of large and colorful flowers. There is a wonderful cornucopia of blooms, large Pansies, Poppies, Sunflowers, Daisies, etc. All the ...
$14 USD ReducedREDUCED 1960's Black Velvet Cone Hat with a twist-Flamboyant
Clothing:Womens
We at "What'll I Wear? Vintage love hats. All kinds, all eras, all shapes and sizes. I admire the styles of the different decades and often think how natural and expected it was to wear a hat and how lucky the women of times past were, for that. It didn't seem to matter what the decoration or trimming, all ladies wore a hat. The 60's were a decade of new found freedoms and therefore flamboyancy took center stage. This is an example of this, in my opinion. It's a black cone hat, which on it's own ...
$48 USD Offers ConsideredLate 1960's 70's "Casino California" 2 piece Skirt Suit Op Art -Luscious
Clothing:By Period:1970's:Women's:Dress:Day/Office Wear:Skirt Suit
I do believe that this absolutely delicious suit would be on the cusp of the late 60's-early 70's due to the nearly op art pattern mixed with flower power, plus the decidedly 70's earth colors. As you can see from the photos the jacket is a great mix of muted caramel, yellow, burnt orange, cream, taupe and black and the fabric appears to be a soft cotton velveteen. I love it and really wish that I were my other svelte self (seen the diet ad where the woman says "I lost myself'?) I'd hang on to ...
$35 USD Offers Considered1970's Day Dress "Lady Mendel Knits of Distinction" Hot Runway Colors
Clothing:By Period:1970's:Women's:Dress:Day/Office Wear
I know you've seen this color combination of chocolate and raspberry in many magazines ranging from home decor to fashion. It, along with chocolate and blue, were the top 2 must haves just this past year. Well, it's said that everything that goes around comes around, which is proven by this fashionable late 60's, early 70's jersey knit day dress. It also has some light tan thrown into the mix of color and pattern. Speaking of which, I can't decide if it's leaning toward Celtic roots or folk art ...
$34 USD ReducedREDUCED 1950's-60-'s B. Altman & Co. 5th Ave. N.Y. Beaded Sweater/Cardigan Cream -Lambs Wool-
Clothing:Womens:1950-60's:Cardigan:Sweater:Beaded:Hong Kong:Lamb's Wool
This cardigan/sweater is in excellent vintage condition with no beading missing as far as I can tell, and all the tags are intact. The maker label reads "Made in Hong Kong for B. Altman & Co. 5th. Aven. N.Y. 70% Lambs wool 20% Angora rabbit fur and 10% Nylon. The lining is 100% Nylon. Speaking of lining, the body is but the arms are not (lined I mean) which is pretty much standard on these items. There is an awesome amount of white seed beads, (also some tiny faux pearl beads interspersed) ...
$34 USDVintage 1950's All-In-One Body Shaper-Girdle-Mad Men Office Girls
Clothing:By Period:1950's:Women's:Undergarment:Girdle:Body Shaper
Wow, don't I wish I could have had the silhouette that the gorgeously dressed, gorgeously figured young women on the show "Mad Men" (of which I'm a fan, by the way, must be the clothes) have. 'Course, we must realize what was worn underneath to give them that perfect 36" 24" 38" figure, was an undergarment such as this. All would have owned 3 at the very least of this all-in-one girdle body shaper. This particular garment is in fab condition, no marks or stains and it's an all-over lovely light ...
$34 USD ReducedREDUCED 1960's Costume Jewellery Brooch Earring Set Brilliant Green Navettes Lilac Aurora Borealis Rhinestone Demi Parure
Jewelry:Vintage:Sets:Demi Parures:Rhinestones:Greens:Blues
This high end costume earring and brooch set is absolutely stunning with it's vibrant emerald green, citrine and perfectly lovely lilac hues. The brilliant green (then again can look slightly turquoise) of the 11 navettes, that spray around the outer edge, is dominant with the other tones of the chaton cut rhinestones (1 large in center, 3 medium and 5 small) complimenting it beautifully. As is common with the aurora borealis stones, there are touches of elusive other tints depending on the ...
$60 USD ReducedREDUCED 1940's "Betty Rose Coats and Suits " 2 pc. Skirt/Jacket Stunning "Look Out Joan Crawford" "
Clothing:By Period:1940's:Women's:2 Piece:Suit:Skirt:Jacket
This absolutely top notch 2 piece skirt and jacket are not given justice with my rather amateur photography skills. It's the attention to details that make this suit so unique. The 4 panels at the back of the jacket give it that tell tale nipped waist so forties, as do the darts that run from shoulder to inside edge of the pocket. There is a second set of darts that run down from under the breast area to mid seam on the pocket. Speaking of pockets, these are amazing. As I don't know the proper ...

The oriental styling speaks of comfort. The boxy jacket can be worn straight or with it's self fabric belt. Yep, it really still has it's belt, a rarity I know. It boasts 4 ...
$99 USDMid Century Modern 60's Barkcloth Drapes 1 Pair Huge Panels Red,Blue,Cream, Wine, Black WOW
Collectibles:Textiles:1960's:Mid Century Modern:Mod:Fabric:Geometric:Drapes:Curtains
Wow, these drapes are fashioned from a knockout eye-popping colorway in a tight weave fabric. Very mid-century modern so perfect with your teak Danish Modern furniture. Swaths would have covered the huge expanse of the "picture" window in the living room. This was a must have feature of every new home built after the war. The down side of these huge windows was the fact that the people of the late fifties and sixties were deathly afraid of a nuclear bomb. Somehow they seemed to believe that ...
$30 USD ReducedREDUCED Elegant Cruise/Resort Cover-up Sundress by "Meme Dysthe"- Amazing Color
Clothing:Womens:Resort:Pool:Patio:Full Length Dress:Vacation Cover-up
This fab 80's patio evening dress is totally awesome with it's gorgeous colors of black, bright orange, blaze orange, fuchsia, emerald green, french lilac, royal purple with a tad of white thrown in to separate the varying widths of crayon box colors running on the diagonal. I'm not sure of the fabric content although it appears to me to be a crepeline of possibly silk but most likely a silk blend or polyester. The entire fabric surface is finely puckered. This is a versatile garment as it could ...
$32 USD1960's Tiered Pillbox Hat-Shocking Pink, hot Orange Gold Metallic-Wow!

Over all this color feast is a layer of pink net sprinkled with tiny hot pink felt (what appear to be) buds. With the exception of the netting, the hat itself just glows with an overall sheen. The net pulls down about 1 1/2" below the ...
$42 USD1940's Evening Purse Velvet Clutch Purse w/ Metallic Silver Trapunto
Clothing:By Period:1930's-1940's:Women's:Clutch:Evening:Bag:Purse
This is an adorable little clutch evening bag although it does have a rope style handle about the thickness of a boot lace (but is a whole lot more stylish), I'd think that it would be held in the hand. What an exciting history it must have had because when new it was definitely one expensive (for the times) evening clutch. The whole front flap is covered in undulating strands of sparkling teeny beaded wire. There are flower centers with rhinestones, leaves done in the wire, fan and plume shapes ...

Clothing:By Period:1960's:Women's:Day Dress
This is a lovely example of the trendy drop waist, button front 1960's day dress, very era specific and it has a nice crisp look. The luscious yellow contrasts beautifully with the navy patent original belt and skirt. Even the top of the bodice and armhole lining is a great contrast in navy with white polka dots. The long dropped waist bodice is very slimming especially so with the curvaceous darts that travel from the armhole, over the bust and right on down to where the top meets the skirt ...
