Good old days still sell in cyberspace
So, you're having a 1950s theme party or doing up your wedding '30s style. You've researched the era, outlined what you're supposed to wear and practiced a couple of old-time dance steps. Now it's time to get your gear, but from where?
Try your computer.
VintageTrends.com is a new online retailer that sells thousands of vintage items including apparel, household stuff and accessories. Need a '70s wrap dress for your office retro bash? VintageTrends has it. Orange chiffon hostess dress? It's got that, too. Wool ski pants from the 1940s? You betcha. Coats, slacks, shoes, purses, men's, women's, kids -- it's all there, along with a military section (vintage and surplus), an unimpressive recycled section (used name brands) and a new fashion area featuring sportswear by Riley.
Items date from 1930 to today and run from about $10 to several thousand.
