Best of Vintage | Vol. 15
Choosing your next going-out dress comes with a unique mix of dread and excitement. Is the occasion on the calendar? Is it next week? Whether you’re buying the dream look sans event or running against the clock for the perfect number, occasion shopping can feel stressful. Today we have fewer rules when it comes to getting dressed in general. Yoga pants are worn in places other than the gym, sequins are donned for the office, and jeans are ok for a night at the opera. I ask myself, was it easier back when there were social dress codes? Probably—but, less fun!
With choice, there’s more room for creativity and for showcasing your personal style. Vintage is the one-stop solution to achieving a look no one else will have while also shopping responsibly. After all, who wants to share the limelight, and who wants a fabulous frock sitting in the back of the closet for half a decade!? Vintage is precious, sustainable, and perfect for those special events. We’ve gathered up our going-out faves, complete with styling, below. Shop slinky silk, dramatic tulle, one-of-a-kind finds, and more.
