- FooFooGal has taken The Honest Vintage Pledge:
Everything that I have tagged as vintage in my shop is at least twenty years old or older. I stake my reputation on it.
After years of studying and research and being in the Antiques and collectibles business since 1996 and online since 2002 with hundreds of customers I know my stuff. The research of an item is half the fun to me.
I will never knowingly sell a fake or a cheap repro knockoff for a quick buck to my customers. EVER.
I may have some supplies a bit newer but most all supplies will also be over 20 years.
You have my word on it.
I am willing to sell to some International Customers. Please convo me if you see anything you would like. This way I can give some idea to best shipping cost. I do reserve the right to not ship to some though. Thank you.
See something you really want. I will consider reasonable offers. You never know till you ask by convo first. This way I can adjust the price before an order. Thanks. - Fancy Pants and More
- My specialty is vintage lingerie, clothing and accessories, but I dabble in anything vintage or antique. I dearly love items with a history, a mystery, and a story.
Did You Notice?
Yes, Etsy has some awesome vintage shops. No, Etsy doesn't really advertise the fact. Yes, that fact is a let down to many vintage sellers.
More About Vintage Clothing
Category: File - :Half slip.jpg|thumb|225px|Vintage half slip
Vintage clothing is a generic term for new or second hand garments originating from a previous era. The phrase is also used in connection with a retail outlet, e.g. "vintage clothing store." It can also be used as an adjective: "This dress is vintage."
The word vintage is copied from its use in wine terminology, as a more elegant-seeming euphemism for "old" clothes.

Noticed "hippy" headbands the other day on some show on TV. LOLOL! I'm not that old, but pretty soon the stuff I grew up with (okay that time has already arrived!) is "vintage?!" Yikes.
Excellent lens! (And granted most of this does date back before I was born, thank god!)
