Hello all, I am selling a glorious pair of surplus civil defence flannel trousers.
They were in fact made in the 1960s, but the cut is spot on for a 1930s-1950s look.
Very heavy and thick dark grey wool flannel, single forward pleats, tunnel belt loops, zip fly with a very nice zip

But the collar is clearly derived from the...

Please post photos of vintage caps, either your own, or as worn by people back in the day.
We have the cap faction, yes, but it is a huge thread which incorporates modern, vintage and repro caps, and I think it will be useful to have a neat resource for just the vintage examples, for...
Hello,
I recently bought some linen flat caps, and I am selling on a couple that I don't need/don't fit.
They are by Olney and have a vintage, full cut, and a nice drape to them.
They have not been worn more than once, and the tags are still attached.
One thing to note is that I...

Hello all,
some of you may have seen my post on What Price Glory's high waisted khakis.
Well, they are very nice, but a bit too tight in the waist for me, so am selling them on.
Learn from my mistake! :)

This is just meant to be a bit of fun:
There are some items of clothing that elicit an almost physical revulsion from me.

Prime example: raglan sleeved, shapeless leather jacket with a storm flap with multiple...
Hello all,
I really wanted to hold on to this shirt, but I have come to accept that the sleeves are too short for me.
It is a modern repro by Freddies of Pinewood, famous for their vintage style jeans.
Very nice thick burgundy corduroy. Back Side pleats and flapped pockets.
Only worn on a...

They have popped up here from time to time, but I thought they deserved a thread of their own:
Portraits that showcase vintage fashion.
I think they are important counterpart to photography for several reasons.
One is colour, so often missing from the photographs of the time.
Another is the...
I am a fan of Wes Anderson, especially of his films Bottle Rocket and Rushmore.
Imho with his last couple of films the quirky/eccentric thing was starting to get a bit old.
But this looks very promising:

I'll give it to you straight: I love metal, and prog rock, and have a taste for sinister/dramatic/brooding music.
Upbeat stuff often does not agree with me.
These aforementioned qualities are readily found in orchestral music from the era this forum reveres, but what about popular music?
