I am trying to figure out where in the heck you gals find the true vintage or retro reproduction lingerie I see everywhere but can't seem to find a store for purchasing. I'd love to find something online. Please let me know. Oh btw I already tried the vendor links on here, there was none or the sites listed didn't open up. : (
There is quite a lot of original vintage material on eBay or Etsy. We sometimes have items in our eBay store and my partner is an expert in dating items based on stitching, labels etc. But because they are often delicate they tend not to survive as much as outerwear.
As you probably know, on eBay people often say something is vintage when its a reproduction.
As with all things 20s to 40s they tend to run small, we were all just skinnier then....
