I love the 20s! I have a real 20s dress, but it's unwearable due to delicate fabric. I'd like to maybe someday get and exact repro done. I got married in a dress from the 1930s. I bought it in an antique store years before I met my husband so it's not a "traditional" wedding dress. It's a...
I'm a modern gal with a vintage edge. I guess we all are.
For example:
-I listen to scratchy old jazz via CDs and mp3s.
-I watch silent films on a television set or computer screen through a DVD player.
-My real vintage clothing only comes out for special occasions. All other times I...
Unfortunately, I think vintage clothing (1900-1950s) will be extremely scarce in the next 70 years and will probably only be on display in a museum. Fabric only lasts so long. Even what we're wearing today will probably be scarce and in demand. LOL. I can't imagine it!
But on the bright...

*YOU* can see my apartment pics here in my LJ if you haven't already. We also have a horrid beige-y brown carpet, oak cabinets, white walls, and horrid little blue diamonds on our kitchen and bathroom floors. We're not totally vintage, but we do...
Totally envious! I love the 1930s, too, but it's impossible for me to take it as far as you have. :( You do it brilliantly!
I liked when they asked you "So you're like an old lady?" I get that all the time.
Welcome!
I've always liked "old" stuff. When I was a kid I adored it because I had this fear/fascination with it. I loved watching old movies when I was young!
When I was a teen I got into punk, though, and forgot all about vintage until 1998. I was getting older (the big 2-3!!) and...
Thanks a lot, guys! Everyone on here looks great, too! Here's another of me. Probably my favourite....

The only thing that is real vintage in this photo is the hat!! Everything else is modern.

In full vintage regalia!
There's no way I could pick one movie, either.
It (1927)
Show People (1928)
The Broadway Melody (1929)
Way Out West (1930)
Just Imagine (1930)
The Matrimonial Bed (1930)
God's Gift To Women (1931)
I Am A Fugitive From A Chain Gang (1932)
Red Headed Woman (1932)
Three On A Match...
I guess you're getting this answer from a lot of people, but I'll say it anyway :)
Dress accordingly, but with a vintage flair. I trust that you'll look killer no matter what! If your date likes it and he's more interested in it than you expected, break out the big guns on the second date...
I thought ART DECO HAIR was never released??? I had it "On Order" from amazon.com the second I caught wind of it in 2001. It was supposed to be released in Sept '01 (I think) then I kept getting emails from amazon saying that the release date was pushed back and pushed back until finally they...
I prefer the 1931 version, also. It's more logical than the 1940 version and I had a lot more sympathy for Mae Clarke than I did Vivien Leigh. The ending of the 1931 version is much sadder. To be honest, I didn't care for the ending of the 1940 version. Nevermind that committing suicide is a...
