What Makes it Vintage?

• Single Tag

The double tag was common by the end of the 90s, so clothes with only one tag indicate a pre-2000s manufacturing.

• Made in Italy

Italian-made clothes are known for their high-quality raw materials, elegant style, precise details and durability. The 100% Made in Italy certification is awarded only to products which, in addition to being “Made in Italy” according to the current law, are truly designed, engineered, processed and manufacture in Italy.

• Embroidered Tag

Embroidered tags have become a trademark of vintage pieces since companies began to print tags in order to cut costs in the 80s and 90s.

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