Vintage Clothes

The 1960's revolutionised fashion. For the first time ever in any fashion era the young became the leaders of fashion with new and radically innovative styles. The Mini skirt, Go-Go boots and Boutiques were all a product of this exciting generation-breaking decade. The influence of pop idols, art, music and social change all played a part in creating a stylistic, daring and fun period in history that has seen the iconic 1960's dress become extremely desirable today.

The 1970s were literally the "anything goes" decade. Young people were making their own clothes at home, inspired by the many counter-cultures around them from Hippy, Folk, Funk or Punk. Movies and television shows such as Charlie's Angels and Wonder Woman were having an increasingly profound affect on fashion.

Today films and music are still an important influence on trends for fashion, make up, hairstyles and jewellery. Brit Pop in the 1990's brought back 1970's fashions such as flares, Parker jackets and crazy shirts.

Nowadays the eclectic 1980's are seeing a comeback in music and fashion. Madonna skirts, leggings and leg warmers are all staple basics in our wardrobes!

The new music scenes from the UK and US alike have brought back individualism to fashion. The need to express our own individuality teamed with our romantic nostalgia for past decades has led to a high demand for vintage clothing and individual labels that produce clothing that can't be purchased on the high street. The real evidence can be seen at music festivals, which are becoming increasingly more popular every year promoting unusual and eccentric dress attire.

Today the "anything goes" attitude is in full force. Whatever you are in to, whether it is Rockabilly, Mod or Goth, you can find that perfect vintage number!
