How to Buy Vintage Clothing - Women's Style

How to Buy Vintage Clothing - as part of the Women's Style series by GeoBeats. Hi, I am Kathleen Kroner with Owl Talk Clothing. When you are looking for vintage clothing, wherever you go to buy your clothing, be it a flea market, a boutique, in the country or a thrift store, you are going to want to be prepared when you shop. When you go out to shop for vintage clothing, have in mind what you are looking for, first of all. Have in mind the era, the style you would like, and the color. Once you are shopping for that vintage clothing and you see something that you like, take the article and examine it thoroughly. Check the arms, check the sleeves, check for moth holes, and check for wear at the elbows or under the arms. Sometimes vintage clothing has been worn frequently, and sometimes it has not been worn at all. The trick is to find a piece that has been gently used and that is a good classic style that can be re-worn again, over and over.
