I get "Oh I couldnt wear that" all the time from women over 40. 40! Thats young isnt it ? Anyway, once I saw a ninety year old woman walking down the streed in a lovely 1960s suit, brooch, hat gloves an all, and I decided that I'll never stop, she looked fab :)Solanahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17543713717427918730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839841836485094752.post-66805405312141955642008-07-21T09:45:00.000-07:002008-07-21T09:45:00.000-07:00Seeing Molly Ringwald today in a 1980s prom dress ...Seeing Molly Ringwald today in a 1980s prom dress would be scary. On the other hand, I bet she'd look great in a 1940s suit.<BR/><BR/>I guess that old saying is true that you shouldn't wear something vintage if you wore it the first time around.<BR/><BR/>And I completely agree about mid-century design!Xtabay Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862357972500916081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839841836485094752.post-79980985014258727262008-07-20T00:11:00.000-07:002008-07-20T00:11:00.000-07:00I recently read an interview with Molly Ringwald, ...I recently read an interview with Molly Ringwald, who is now in her 40s. She stated she does not wear vintage anymore and I couldn't help but feel like it was because she had outgrown it. <BR/><BR/>I don't think anyone can grow to old to admire craftsmanship and originality, but I imagine one would "feel old" if they wore a garment from their youth. I know I feel strange when I wear something from the 80s or 90s.<BR/><BR/>But nothing can ever replace the quality and beauty of mid-twentieth century design.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
