Best and Worst Vintage Buys

Lingerie

Skip or Score? Score (but skip the undies!)

“Vintage lingerie is one of the most overlooked items,” says Easley. While the idea of wearing someone else’s undergarments may seem a bit skeevy, keep in mind we’re not talking underwear (that’s a definite skip); we’re talking slips.

According to Easley, “There are a lot of great slips … silk slips that are better quality and made from better patterns than the ones produced today.” As for actual wear, you don’t have to keep this item confined to your bedroom. Instead, try layering slip tops to wear with jeans, or pull a Drew Barrymore circa 1995, by layering two longer slips and wearing them as a dress.
