Increasingly , all of the above tags are used , to label fashion.
Are they just labels ? Some can be applied to what amounts to a pile of old tat.
Less often, they apply to collectible ,wearable and highly coveted pieces from the past .
These items are becomingly increasingly popular , and are reminiscent of a bygone era . They generally offer , superb tailoring , gorgeous fabrics , unusual design , and unique pieces . Whats not to like ?
Many recycled boutiques have sprung up , with these items gracing their shelves.
Op shops , grandma’s closet and fete’s can reveal undiscovered treasures .
A rich, and varied source of clothing, is hard to find as more competition, for pieces occurs .
Long time bower birds , ie munters , are finding their traditional hunting grounds well picked over, or depleted .
Price plays a big part too, as stocks of preloved items are usually cheaper than designer boutiques . That is, of course, unless a recycled retailer has hit on the source , and gathered , and repriced, the items , in their more up – market boutiques .
Its no coincidence , that locations are becoming closely guarded secrets, traded between friends, or passed down from mother to daughter !
