Vintage on eBay

Sorry, I posted this on Rip it to Shreds, too:

Late 30's/early 40's two piece set: size 4/6.
Late 1930's ragamuffin handmade feedsack dress with heart pocket: size 12/14
40's Scarecrow novelty print dress: size XS
1930's depression era rayon floral dress: size 6ish.

I finally listed some more stuff on eBay! They are listed for after 7pm, West Coast time tonight.
I'm also thinking of starting on etsy shop, but it seems like you really have to promote yourself, and I'm so lazy, you know?

So 30's Dress


The long shape, highish waist with belt, and dramatic shoulder are so 30's.

I love these types of dresses.

30's-40's Dress


The yoke front is very classic late 30's/early 40's dress, as is the crepey rayon.

Deco 30's Dress







The way these deco-type dresses drape really blows my mind.

30's Kitty Print Dress




Look at the collar! I imagine this was handmade and the woman who made it actually cut those kitties out of the fabric and stitched them on. God, you'd think if fashion wasn't considered "art,", it would at least be considered "folk art," which I guess also is a really patronizing term, even though folk art is the best, and generally a lot more compelling and informative than most "real art."

Adorable 30's Dress


This is a very good example of 30's fashion- I think this is from the mid-late 30's, with it's dramatic sleeves, navy and white polka dot print, and pointy collar.

30's Dress and Coat



This is truly amazing, from the absinthe color to the fur collar- such decadence! I think everyone hated velvet after the awful velours, crushed, and stretch velvets of the 90's, but real silk or rayon velvet is soft, light, and beautiful.

Late 30's Sheer Floral



I love the seaming and panels on dresses from this period very much- so flattering! And look at the beautiful embroidery.
