Yeah, I looked at the first website. Pretty darn expensive and wayyyy out of teacher budget. Iâll stick to thrifting and making my own summer dresses with my crazy talented ML.

defiantly expensive. however, i would imagine (or hope) that these dresses are very high quality and meant to last you years. if not, its a scam. you could always learn to sew and make simular pieces
Mod cloth , unique vintage, princess highway, collectif, retro stage, and jolly vintage are where I get my clothes from. All the clothing are super high quality!
I would be wary of Retro Stage. A lot of pinups have had their photos (and sometimes post captions) stolen by Retro Stage and used for advertising without their permission and without pay. Even when they are wearing a different brand's clothes, Retro Stage will use the images to advertise anyways meaning the product they are advertising isn't even their own.
I think Unique Vintage is actually very hit or miss. Sometimes the fabrics are horrible quality, the seams have loose threads, and one dress arrived with a broken zipper. Other dresses from them have been amazing and lasted years.
In my experience, it's worth either paying at least $100 a dress, or digging through thrift stores for the occasional gem, because anything less than that just isn't quality and costs you more in the long run to replace it.
â@flockofdoves3889 oh yes cause the sewing machine, materials and time to learn how to sew are cheap... đ no one is ever happy, let me buy my cheap ass clothes and be able to afford food this month
I swear I think my viewpoint is skewed because $200-300 didnât seem that insane for really well made dresses. Also DVF wrap dresses are around $300-600, the exact one she was wearing was $560 but Diane Von Furstenburg is considered a luxury brand, akin to a more respected and less widely known Coach.
So my grandmother knew DVF as an acquaintance in Connecticut and swears she showed her some sketches for a simple wrap dress sheâd designed which she thought DVF might have the resources/contacts to help her produce & market (Grandmother was an architect by trade) and a couple years later DVF launched the iconic wrap dress. Grandmother has passed now, but she was seriously pissed but also laughed about it as the years went onâŠ
I can relate to this. My grandfather, who was a shipwright, designed a specific type of foldable table, a year later his neighbour has patented the design and made bank. He was also bitter but would also laugh at it saying "glad he could help his neighbour in need"
Not the same thing but when I was an elementary kid around 9 I took part in this competition on worlds children's literature day or something like that and the prize was getting as many books as you can carry in your arms for free. It was basically about walking from station to station at the bookstore and putting down the answers on your worksheet, the answers are all hints towards a word you have to guess. I was the first one who solved it I was excited and told this girl who I knew from school that I solved it and I ran up to the announcer to tell him. But I guess she must have seen my final answear because before I could she ran up to him showed him her sheet which didn't have any of the questions solved only the final word and he ignored me when I pulled at his jacket to show him my full sheet. He didn't listen pushed me aside put a hand on the other girls shoulder and announced she was the winner. For context I was poor and didn't own a single book even my school books where second hand and from a neighbors kid who went to a different school, I was there on my own with not a single cent in my pockets. Evryone was dressed all fancy for the event I was in a trifted sweater. The girl then went and not only picked out the book series I had wanted and told her about for her free price but then also called her parents over and proceeded to buy over a 100$ worth maybe closer to 200$ of more books. Her parents didn't even bat an eye even trew in some toys while praising her for being their little genius. As if they had to make it any more glaringly obvious that they really didn't need that bit of charity. As a child of working class immigrants it felt like spit to the face like they were trampling all over my efforts and struggles. I walked out of there with nothing but rage. Eventually I found a library in my town and I spent evry day there after a year the librarian helped me get a card through some program. It was wonderful! The card expired after a year and I couldn't afford to renew it.

So nice to hear that the first company is inclusive for us girls who aren't skinny. Companies really need to start including bigger sizes to fit an average girl now. I just discovered that my edit never made it. I discovered that they are only "inclusive" by way of the modern of looks, but not size. It's still terribly small and only slightly bigger than other companies. I mean, even us average to heavy gals don't want to see a bigger modal sqeezed into something small, or in something very revealing. But the styles from this company are very nice. And being a sewer myself, I know how much fabric is now days, but I know they get it in bulk and I just can't see for the styles much fabric use that would call for just extravagant prices. Really, most people could MAYBE scrape together to buy one for a nice dress for events like weddings or Easter church. But definitely not more than one. If you could bring yourself to even spend that kinda money.
Most do there's no reason to accommodate people who are 500+ lbs as it's wasteful due to taking an entire bolt of fabric to make and the fact there's not much in the demand aspect
â@Aya Jade Jesus christ, this is an ugly comment. That's also not what they are saying at all. There is a lot in between rail thin and 500lbs. And just because it says XXL on the label does not mean it was created for someone of that size to fit properly.
@@ivyblack8145 I'm fine with size exclusivity to a certain point I'm just not going to humor being wasteful as fat activists are trying normalize being over 500+lbs. An entire bolt of fabric is 32 yards which can make 8-16 dress or other garments for an adult size to waste it on one garment is insanely wasteful. That's before we get it's impossible to properly pattern for someone that size. I'm against Shein for the same reason of textile waste and you can't change reality of how much fabric,water, labor, etc it takes to make a single garment in the 5-6+xl range being incredibly wasteful.

Astrior is really nice, some vintage and others are antique inspired. Her clothes are really pretty and at an accessible price; I've never seen anything over $90
Since Iâm not into fashion in the way you are. Iâd say whatever vintage brand youâre wearing is my favorite each one you wore looks great. The corsetâs are well designed and constructed, but youâve been blessed with the ideal figure to pull off any attire you put on.
My absolute favourite is Seamstress of Bloomsbury -- their house-made crepe is beautiful. Very excited to discover Son de Flore, can't wait to purchase from them.
Itâs a vintage 20âs (I think? I donât remember) dressing gown that belonged to her very wealthy Great Aunt Stella. Acquiring a similar one today would be extremely expensive or you would have to pattern and sew it yourself.
â@@mushroomgal9614 I agree, I have stopped ordering new stuff from them. I have a few things from when I first discovered them in 2015 and have used a lot. That all look better than some of my newer stuff from them. The shirts are also all way to short now, I have one from 2015 that first perfectly, and a decent one from their top vintage Collab but newer ones are crop tops for me and only work with underbust high skirts.
I checked out son de flor thinking they would be around $100 USD. THEY ARE 250+!!. I donât know anything about how much it takes to make an ethically sourced dress (assuming the materials are ethically sourced due to high price) but gosh damn!
I have a Diane von furstenburg the color authority dress from the 90s that I thrifted for a few dollars itâs a super soft velvet and has a beautiful nouveau velvet mesh yoke and it fits me perfectly. Was worried it wouldnât since it was a medium and Iâm an xl but then I remembered that vintage sizing is different depending on decade.
@@rocknroller77 Iâm also mid-size (sorry for not clarifying) so I can usually fit into m-xl depending on the garment. Also something Iâve noticed with 90s clothes is that is that a lot of the ones Iâve worn tend to run larger. Like a 90s xl shirt is wayyyyy too big for me.
Yep, there were a lot of oversized clothes in the 90s... cut 6+ inches bigger in the bust and hips than you'd expect from the tag. I picked up a bunch of older stuff in 2000 in smaller sizes and wore them as a more traditional fit.
@@SerebroWD love scouring depop for vintage goth brand garments and I always keep in mind the sizing differences across decades and brands. Also have seen actual true vintage and antique garments (including antique Victorian mourning wear) for surprisingly good prices there.
Diane Von Furstenberg jeans have always fit me like a glove, from my high-school size (14) to my current size (22). And her wrap dresses makes ANY size look goodâŒïž
I was really excited to see that Son De Flor has 3XS, but it turns out that the waist size is basically comparable to a US size 4 or 6, so I guess they're only "inclusive" to one side of the spectrum. đą
I wish people would stop throwing catch phrases like "they believe in inclusivity, anyone can wear these" And actually say what they actually mean. Is it the size? Is it the shapes? Is it tailored to wheelchair users? Do they have a "biologically male body" Line or what? Just say it as it is.
The DVF wrap dresses , especially with the flared silk chiffon skirts are absolutely gorgeous on any body type. As I yo-yoâed between sizes , wrap dresses became a staple for me and I did try different lower priced options but none of them are a elegant as the DVF ones. Iâve gotten so many compliments wearing them.
Honestly in todays day and age, XXS-XXL isnât exactly size inclusive so much as an average range of clothing sizes. Maybe a bit more expanded as lots donât have XXS but other than that, itâs just fairly average size range
I will say only the lace made is reasonably priced but sadly only the first one has inclusive sizing. If your bust is over 35in donât shop at lace made. I find if you like 1950s inspired dresses collectif London is a good reasonably priced and fairly size inclusive option. Would love for things like lace made to fit međą
Hi, I haven't bought anything from them yet, but I think you should check out Freddies of Pinewood if you like 40/50's menswear inspired clothes :) Also, Lady K Love make the coolest vintage inspired jeans as well if that's something you're looking for. They are both UK brands, but they do ship internationally. Hope that helps đ
Wrap dresses are so chef kiss. I remember my grandma use to wear a wrap dress every time she visit the doctor. She always look so chic and feminine. We always tease that she is trying to impress the doctor. This just remind me that I need to get a vintage wrap dress, wish I đącould visit home to raid my grandma closet. I use to go through all her old handbags as a kid, so much goodies in them from the 60âs and the 70âs. She always keep everything in her old handbags, imagine finding 30 year old candies. I miss herđą
Voodoo Vixen is a good vintage style brand. I got one of my dresses for free from a lady from church, and two others at a local thrift store. There's a vintage store in my hometown that sells both vintage and vintage reproductions. I suspect the lady who owns the shop sometimes donates dresses that didn't sell.
Son de flor really isnât size inclusive⊠idk why we acting like companies who can barely accommodate to a US size 22 are inclusive. Thereâs plenty of ppl who are much bigger than that that still deserve access to clothing.
anybody can wear son de flor?!?!??! really!?!??!?! all of the dresses i checked on their site only go from xxs to xxl and their clothes cant even fit me even though i can find clothes in normal shops in the normal sizes section, wtaf do you mean "they are inclusive and everyone can wear them"?!?!?!?
Inclusivity can also mean paying the seamstresses a living wage. We have gotten way too used to buying cheap clothes made in sweatshops in Asia under slave-like conditionsâŠ
do you know any vintage brands that are accessibility friendly ? i love vintage inspired clothes but they always have so many buttons and i struggle to button things :/
the 3 brands she mentioned are 1) Son de Flor, 2) Lacemade Official, and 3) Diane von Furstenburg

I wish people would stop throwing catch phrases like "they believe in inclusivity, anyone can wear these" And actually say what they actually mean. Is it the size? Is it the shapes? Is it tailored to wheelchair users? Do they have a "biologically male body" Line or what? Just say it as it is.
for ppl in netherlands, try the king louie brand! It has really cute options
love the intro dress
Last dress has an incredible fitting, could have practically been tailored to you! Kudos
Unfortunatelly, not "everyone" can wear Son de Flor. I'm a pretty standard 2X plus size, and I can't even fit in the 4XL on their website.
Memery for shoes â€
Oh I love that last one and she's a bucket list itemâ€
I cannot say with words how thankful I am to finally know where these people get their clothes ackkk! Shopping spreeeee!
Most of my vintage/retro dresses come from Collectif.
Omg. I looked up just the first place you mentioned⊠nothing is less than $230 beautiful but way too rich for my blood
Same!
Belle Poque has cute vintage inspired stuff that's actually budge friendly! I have a few pieces from them that I adore.
i love the maxmara academia clothes, they look so vintage!
DVF wrap dress Las never gone out of style! Makes every woman look good! Love the corsets! And the other dresses!
"this is so out of budget" All of the brands are out of budget.
For any poor soul wondering, the first dresses (Son de Flor) all sell for over $200 USD. So, yeah, not for the commonwealth. I'll stick to Amazonđ
The DVF wrap dresses , especially with the flared silk chiffon skirts are absolutely gorgeous on any body type. As I yo-yoâed between sizes , wrap dresses became a staple for me and I did try different lower priced options but none of them are a elegant as the DVF ones. Iâve gotten so many compliments wearing them.
the very first dress looks so good đđ€
Vintage inspired and Unique Vintage
Honestly in todays day and age, XXS-XXL isnât exactly size inclusive so much as an average range of clothing sizes. Maybe a bit more expanded as lots donât have XXS but other than that, itâs just fairly average size range
Popsy has some cute vintage inspired stuff. Also they have the cutest patterns ive ever seen for adult womens clothing
I like mod cloth and unique vintage. I wish is was easier to find 80s clothes like Blanche's wardrobe from the Golden Girls.
DVF wrap dress on you is THE LOOK
Okay but where is the red satin one from?
Yes! I would love to know as well!
I wanna know too
The 2nd and 3rd brands have super preety dressesâ€â€â€
Everything comes back in style that's why just keep everything
Where is the red dress you wore at the start of the video?
Itâs a true vintage dress handed down from her great aunt Stella.
I will say only the lace made is reasonably priced but sadly only the first one has inclusive sizing. If your bust is over 35in donât shop at lace made. I find if you like 1950s inspired dresses collectif London is a good reasonably priced and fairly size inclusive option. Would love for things like lace made to fit međą
I was gonna say! Itâs so hard to find size inclusive brands at reasonably affordable price points - especially in vintage styles!
And they aren't even that size inclusive if you look at the chart. The 4XL isn't even a 2X in plus size land.
A good shirtwaist dress is timeless. Doesn't make any difference what brand it is. The little 2 piece is precious.
Absolutely breathtaking
Does anyone know of any clothing brands or lines that have vintage inspired clothes but lean more masculine?
Good point xxx
Hi, I haven't bought anything from them yet, but I think you should check out Freddies of Pinewood if you like 40/50's menswear inspired clothes :) Also, Lady K Love make the coolest vintage inspired jeans as well if that's something you're looking for. They are both UK brands, but they do ship internationally. Hope that helps đ
kinda all out of budget đ
Wrap dresses are so chef kiss. I remember my grandma use to wear a wrap dress every time she visit the doctor. She always look so chic and feminine. We always tease that she is trying to impress the doctor. This just remind me that I need to get a vintage wrap dress, wish I đącould visit home to raid my grandma closet. I use to go through all her old handbags as a kid, so much goodies in them from the 60âs and the 70âs. She always keep everything in her old handbags, imagine finding 30 year old candies. I miss herđą
Voodoo Vixen is a good vintage style brand. I got one of my dresses for free from a lady from church, and two others at a local thrift store. There's a vintage store in my hometown that sells both vintage and vintage reproductions. I suspect the lady who owns the shop sometimes donates dresses that didn't sell.
Son de flor really isnât size inclusive⊠idk why we acting like companies who can barely accommodate to a US size 22 are inclusive. Thereâs plenty of ppl who are much bigger than that that still deserve access to clothing.
"Inclusive"
Not of wallets! Girl you're holding a GRAND worth of dresses lol
I love anything she wears.
Loved that jacket and skirt thing.
anybody can wear son de flor?!?!??! really!?!??!?! all of the dresses i checked on their site only go from xxs to xxl and their clothes cant even fit me even though i can find clothes in normal shops in the normal sizes section, wtaf do you mean "they are inclusive and everyone can wear them"?!?!?!?
Can everyone afford their dressesâŠ.if not, can they really claim inclusivity. Letâs call a spade a spade.
Inclusivity in clothes is about size not the price
Inclusivity can also mean paying the seamstresses a living wage. We have gotten way too used to buying cheap clothes made in sweatshops in Asia under slave-like conditionsâŠ
The green linen dress really goes with your lines and vibe.
First brand: we didnât find your size. Whelp, inclusive is not included
do you know any vintage brands that are accessibility friendly ? i love vintage inspired clothes but they always have so many buttons and i struggle to button things :/
I wonder this too! Iâve been searching with no success đ
Omg i Love diane von furstenberg! I thrifted a dress from her for only 25$ and itâs amazing
What a beauty.
Love the choices. You looked great in them.
Sister Jane is gorgeous. Good quality and vintage inspired designs. And so many details.
That red dress is to die for đ
the last dress suits your body shape SO WELL
I was in NYC last month and I found a DVF "vintage" dress for 19.99$ at Goodwill. Honestly, the fitting is just perfectâ€
