The vintage haute couture and the ready-to-wear vintage or prêt-a-porter vintage. A vintage haute couture dress is a special piece of clothing specifically made by a fashion boutique to its client. This kind of dress is highly prized because of its uniqueness and good quality.
On the other hand, the ready-to-wear vintage dress is a retro type of clothing that is mass-produced. You can find this kind of dress in thrift shops.
Fashion has undergone many evolutions throughout the years, and each decade represents a unique characteristic or trademark in fashion history. For instance, 1960’s was the decade where mini dresses are the rave. 1970’s was the disco era and flared pants, ethnic dresses and skirts of all lengths are the “in” things. Even the detail of each dress is unique because the materials used and the person’s taste in clothing changes with time.
Vintage dresses are the trend nowadays from casual to formal wear. A lot of celebrities mix and match vintage pieces with modern clothing. The Olsen twins, Nicole Richie, Cameron Diaz and Sienna Miller are just some of the famous personalities who are fans of vintage dresses. There are also celebrities who wear vintage gowns to red carpet events.
Now, you can see on the pages of fashion magazines that the trend is bringing back the looks of the past by wearing vintage-inspired dresses. These dresses are actually new but have the traits of clothing styles during the past eras.
