Question: What makes certain type of clothing vintage?
Papersatan:
age?
Scarychips:
Is that really it? It's not a particular style or anything?
nekowafer:
Vintage can be used to describe anything made between the 1920s and the 1980s. It's just a nicer word than old.
calenlass:
I believe people have confused "vintage", which is an age term that precedes "antique", and "retro", which I believe means something akin to "throwback". I think "vintage" has recently evolved to also mean "authentic from the era".
So, no, vintage is not a style. Retro-[decade] is a style.
