vintage clothing
Old fashion finds
Vintage clothing refers to garments from a previous era, typically at least twenty years old, valued for their quality, style, or historical character.
The term distinguishes older pieces worth preserving from merely secondhand clothes: She found a 1970s leather jacket at the vintage clothing store.
What qualifies as vintage shifts with time—1990s pieces now enter the category.
