Vintage Inspiration

Fashion, throughout history has turned to previous eras for inspiration. Garments closely resembling original vintage (retro or antique) clothing are mass produced, for the most part, in China. An example of this is the simple slip dresses that emerged in the early 1990s, a style that resembles a 1930's design, but upon examination will show that it only superficially resembles the real thing. These styles are generally referred to as "vintage style", "vintage inspired" or "vintage reproductions". They serve as a convenient alternative to those who admire an old style but prefer a modern interpretation.

If you are a Vintage Women and if you are having a vintage or shabby chic inspired wedding, consider some of these ideas.
