What Makes it Vintage?

• Made in Korea

Korea began rapidly industrializing in the 1960s, leading to US clothing importation coming primarily from Korea and Hong Kong until the 1980s. The shift away from Korean-made clothes to China, India, and Taiwan was not until this time. The more modern clothes from South Korea are known for their quality and style as well—Korean fashion brands use high-quality fabrics and clean cuts to balance vintage and modern styles.

• Label Location of Manufacturing Country

The location of the manufacturing country on a modern label is usually behind the tag, not on the front like many 1980s and earlier labels.

Each of our vintage pieces comes with a handwritten, customized, and strung card-stock tag of the piece's background and vintage appeal.
