Party Dress or Hostess Gown? A Lost Style at Augusta Auctions

One of the interesting things about fashion is how some types of garments or accessories fall our of our style vocabulary. See decorative dress clips, fanged and hinged in order to sit on the edge of a neckline or even a sleeve hem, for example. Clips once came in diamonds or in rhinestones, but now we find them only in antique stores and vintage shops.

Then. there is the hostess gown. Mary Brooks Picken defines in her The Language of Fashion dictionary from 1939 as “usually, formalized negligee simulating a dress” or less usually “formal lounging pajamas.“ These items were worn only at home, but when guests were present. Obviously, these were intimate friends, yet the occasion was more formal, such an a special brunch, or a quiet evening party.

Now, it is easy to see how the peach crepe dress with a standing shawl collar and interesting pleats below the shoulder line qualifies as a hostess gown. The coloring, the short sleeves, and the softness of the garment seem to say negligee, while the rhinestone buckle seems to say “party!”

The fuschia crepe may be a hostess gown, although there is something so military about the beadwork which shows up as epaulets that one cannot imagine it as a negligee. True, there is softness in the gathers below the bust, at the waistline of the skirt and in the gathered bishop sleeves. But there is something about those beads marching along the shoulders as well as along the V-neckline, and the cuffs, and the edges of the fake pockets that makes me see it more as a party dress. Europe had been at war since 1939, and had been militarizing before then, so features borrowed from men’s military grab, like epaulets were borrowed for women’s fashion. The 1940s always saw tailored suits and dresses with large shoulder pads, again borrowed from men, but there always remained some draped looks for women through the war years.

These are part of a sale taking place on-line at Augusta Auctions on February 15th, 2023. To learn more, go here: https://augusta-auction.com/auction/79

This is a heavy cotton shirt with an awesome houndtooth pattern woven into it, solid steel Warner Bros. Buttons and the back has this glorious fully embroidered scene of Looney Tunes characters including; Bugs Bunny, Marvin the Martian, The Tasmanian Devil, Tweety Bird, Sylvester the Cat, Roadrunner, Willy-E Coyote, and Daffy Duck. And to top the whole 80's/90's vibe, the letters are embroidered over denim!

🔹Jewel of a dress in striking amethyst cotton poplin, a wonderful fashion colour and outrageously flattering! Styled on simple lines with a gently moulded top and really full skirt with big, newsy pockets. 🔹Big, gentle peach pink flowers bed down on Everglaze schreinered cotton to make this sentimental beauty of a dress. A butterfly bow settles on the neckline, the billowy skirt springs out from a slightly dropped waistline. 🔹All of Paris shows in this stripey caramel/white beauty in crisp spun rayon. Beautiful big vee built into a cool, long torso top, flirty bow, full springy skirt — there's so much to fall in love with here! 💐🌻🏖️☀️ ("𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝔼𝕟𝕘𝕝𝕒𝕟𝕕" 𝕤𝕡𝕣𝕚𝕟𝕘-𝕤𝕦𝕞𝕞𝕖𝕣 𝟙𝟡𝟞𝟚) 🇬🇧 🔻🔺🔻🔺🔻🔺🔻🔺🔻 #50s #truevintage #1950s #60s #1960s #60sfashion #pinkdress #fashion #vintagedress #midcenturymodern #vintagefashion #vintageclothes #dress #1960sfashion #floralprint #vintagegirl #vintageaesthetic #vintageclothing #60sstyle #vintage #retro #midcentury #vintagelove #50sfashion #sixties #vintagestyle #mode #retrostyle #retrofashion #fashionphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/CfCHM5_jLqu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Behind the Seams-How to Sell Vintage Clothes Online[2024]

Delve into the realm of online vintage clothing sales, where each piece carries a story waiting to be rediscovered. Whether you're scouring thrift stores or sourcing from private sellers, the thrill of unearthing that perfect vintage gem makes every moment worthwhile.

Venturing into the world of vintage fashion isn't just about making money; it's about connecting with like-minded individuals who share a passion for timeless style. And in the digital age, turning that passion into profit has never been easier.

Why Sell Vintage Clothes?

For many, selling vintage clothes isn't solely about financial gain. It's about the nostalgia and sense of connection with an era gone by. Whether it's the charm of the swinging '60s or the disco vibes of the '70s, vintage fashion enthusiasts are drawn to the stories woven into each garment.

Of course, there's also the potential for profit. With the right eye for quality and a knack for marketing, selling vintage clothes online can be a lucrative venture. And unlike traditional brick-and-mortar businesses, the barriers to entry are minimal, making it accessible to aspiring entrepreneurs.

Defining "Vintage"

Determining what constitutes "vintage" clothing can be a bit murky. While some adhere strictly to a 20-year rule, others consider specific eras, like the 1920s to the 1950s, as true vintage. Clear labeling and detailed descriptions become crucial in navigating this ambiguity, helping potential buyers understand the origins and condition of each piece.

Pros and Cons of Selling Vintage Clothes Online

As with any business endeavour, selling vintage clothes online comes with its own set of pros and cons. On one hand, the global reach and relatively low start-up costs offer promising opportunities for growth. On the other hand, standing out in a saturated market and sourcing high-quality pieces pose challenges that require careful navigation.

Finding Your Niche

In a sea of vintage clothing sellers, carving out a niche can set you apart from the competition. Whether it's focusing on a specific era, designer, or clothing category, honing in on what sets your collection apart is key to attracting loyal customers.

Funding Your Business

From sourcing inventory to marketing your store, launching a vintage clothing business requires careful financial planning. Whether you're bootstrapping your venture or exploring alternative funding options, ensuring you have the necessary resources to support your business is essential for long-term success.

Sourcing Vintage Clothes

Thrift stores, private sellers, and online marketplaces offer a plethora of sourcing options for vintage clothing sellers. Each avenue comes with its own advantages and challenges, requiring a blend of patience and resourcefulness to build a diverse inventory.

Cleaning and Repairing Vintage Clothes

Preparing vintage clothes for sale often involves more than just a quick wash. From delicate hand-washing to meticulous repairs, restoring each garment to its former glory is a labor of love that enhances its appeal to potential buyers.

Storage and Inventory Management

Maintaining organized inventory is essential for streamlining operations and providing a seamless shopping experience. Whether utilizing plastic storage bins or garment bags, investing in effective storage solutions ensures your vintage treasures remain in pristine condition.

Pricing Vintage Clothes

Balancing profitability with market demand is key when pricing vintage clothes. Factors such as condition, age, and current fashion trends all influence pricing decisions, requiring a nuanced approach to ensure fair value for both buyers and sellers.

Vintage Clothing Photography

Capturing the essence of each piece through compelling photography is essential for attracting buyers' attention. Whether opting for professional models or flat lay compositions, investing in high-quality imagery elevates the appeal of your vintage collection.

Places to Sell Your Vintage Clothes

From online auction sites to dedicated marketplaces, exploring diverse sales channels maximizes your reach and potential for sales. Whether you're auctioning off unique finds or curating a bespoke storefront, finding the right platform to showcase your collection is key.

Here are some of the most popular platforms for selling vintage clothes:
