Black is a pretty popular color, but we also have Brown, Gray, Beige and more in stock now.

Finding the Right Clothing for You

Start building your collection of covetable and iconic vintage clothing today — no matter where you roam, there is a curated selection of designer dresses and gowns, sweaters, shirts, dazzling shoes and more on 1stDibs that will keep you covered in the hottest styles from head to toe.

From elegant museum-worthy vintage Chanel dresses and jackets to audacious T-shirts and trousers from provocative punk designer Vivienne Westwood, one thing is abundantly clear: If the clothing for sale on 1stDibs could talk, it would certainly make a statement. 

For fashion lovers, the 1990s have become associated with styles adopted by today’s supermodels and influencers — think John Galliano and Roberto Cavalli — but maybe ‘80s accessories are among your (guilty?) pleasures. 

Playful, boldly colored coats and outerwear from Moschino, Ralph Lauren and other titans of the era can take a simpler ensemble to the next level, while chic and practical suits from the likes of Christian Dior and Balmain endure for haute couture advocates and beyond. 

And vintage is the name of the game on today’s red carpets, too. Celebrity stylists are turning to archival pieces created by the likes of Bob Mackie, Thierry Mugler and Jean-Paul Gaultier as alternatives to new gowns plucked straight off the runway. Wearing such sought-after items gives celebrities instant allure and suggests a personal style that’s not only achingly glamorous but intellectually informed and influenced by a love of craftsmanship. 

Those seeking contemporary luxury looks and in-demand street-style fits can indulge in designs by Bottega Veneta, Miu Miu and Loro Piana, while pieces from Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Versace endure as examples of fashion’s most covetable goods. 

The future — and glamorous past — of fashion is yours for the wearing. Find vintage clothing and accessories for sale on 1stDibs, including designs by Balenciaga, Valentino, Celine, Loewe and more.

Questions About Rare Vintage Clothing
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024
    Clothes that are considered vintage are those that are at least 20 years old. Shoes, accessories and bags produced prior to 20 years ago may also be called vintage. You may sometimes see apparel that is over 100 years old referred to as historic or period clothing. Find a large selection of vintage apparel on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024
    Whether vintage clothing is secondhand varies. Vintage clothing is the term for apparel produced more than 20 years ago. Due to its age, vintage clothing was often preloved and worn by someone else. However, it is possible to find a small number of vintage items that are brand new with tags, indicating that no one has worn them previously. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of vintage apparel.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2024
    Vintage clothing is so expensive due to supply and demand. Many people love vintage apparel because it is unique, visually appealing and often features exceptional tailoring and materials. At the same time, only a limited number of pieces survive from previous eras, and those that do aren't always in good condition. As a result, the high demand and limited supply drive up prices. Shop a diverse assortment of vintage apparel on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    Vintage clothes are usually 20 years old or older. Unlike jewelry, clothing is usually not referred to as antique. As a result, people usually use the term vintage to describe all garments produced at least two decades ago. In some cases, you may see clothing that is 100 years old or more referred to as historical or period clothes. Find a wide range of vintage apparel on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024
    What vintage-style clothing is called varies. Vintage-style clothing is the term for apparel that draws inspiration from pieces produced 20 years ago or more. Some people refer to it as retro or retro-influenced clothing. Because it was manufactured more recently than authentic vintage clothing, clothing that is vintage style is classified as contemporary. Shop a wide range of vintage apparel and accessories on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024
    You can tell if vintage clothes are real in a few ways. First, look inside pieces for labels. Union tags are usually a sign that a piece is vintage, and by researching the maker of your apparel and the evolution of their brand labeling, you can often estimate how old a particular garment is. Check the fasteners and fabrics for pieces you believe were produced in the early 20th century or before. Generally, older vintage clothing will have metal zippers and shell or metal buttons rather than plastic. However, keep in mind that any apparel that is more than 20 years old can be considered vintage. Since plastic became a commonly used material by the 1950s and ’60s, plastic buttons and other more modern features may not necessarily mean a piece isn't vintage. Because it can be difficult to date clothing on your own, consider having a certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert assist you. On 1stDibs, shop a large collection of vintage apparel.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To find the value of a pair of vintage Versace clothing, experts suggest that you work with a certified appraiser. While some online resources are helpful when you’re looking for information about the value of an item, the suggested value you find may not reflect the actual value of your item. The actual value depend on a number of factors, including the shape your garments are in. You’ll find expertly-vetted vintage Versace clothing on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024
    To tell if clothes are actually vintage, examine their details closely. Any article of clothing that is at least 20 years old is vintage, and fabrics, construction methods and styles have changed many times over the history of fashion. As a result, apparel from different decades and periods will have its own characteristics, and you may find it helpful to research what features to expect when dating apparel that you believe was made during a specific time, such as the 1960s and 1970s. However, there are a few signs that typically indicate that clothing is vintage. The first is the brand logo on the neck or waist tag. Many brands update their logos on a regular basis, so looking at images of a company's historic labels can often help you determine roughly when it made a particular piece. Other tags and markings can also be useful for spotting authentic vintage clothing. For example, since the Woolmark labeling system ended in 1999, finding a Woolmark logo inside a piece usually means it's vintage, as does the presence of Union tags. Checking the location of manufacturing can be helpful, too. If a garment was made in a country that no longer exists, such as Yugoslavia or West Germany, it would typically be vintage. A certified appraiser or experienced authenticator can be of assistance when trying to determine the date of a particular item. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of vintage apparel.
