15 Women Who Chose Vintage Over Branded Clothes and Won the Fashion Game / Bright Side

You don’t have to wear trendy clothes to look cool. Many women have learned this rule perfectly well and are not afraid to wear outfits that were made when their mothers were still children. Let’s face it, vintage clothes are cool!

“These insane 1970s wooden cut-out platforms. They are so good, but also the plastic cuts into my feet a bit, so I can only wear them for a short amount of time.”

“I have a 1930s wool swimsuit.”

“Had several meetings today, decided to dress a little extra. Wearing a 50s handmade black linen wiggle dress and 50s gloves.”

“I can’t believe my luck: this 70s dress was made by a very famous dressmaker.”

“For the longest time I’ve been searching for the perfect 1940s or 30s red dress, and I finally found the one. And I couldn’t have even dreamed that it would have a dagger collar or big pocket but I got super lucky.”

And these photos prove that vintage clothes only get better with time.
