I do believe it was my longtime blogging friend <a href=\"http:\/\/sheilaephemera.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sheila of Ephemera<\/a> who asked for tips about how to identify the era clothing is from. That&#8217;s an especially important question if you&#8217;re paying a premium for authenticity: Just because something LOOKS like a 1920s flapper dress doesn&#8217;t mean it IS a 1920s flapper dress. I have my own experience in figuring out the authenticity of vintage pieces, but I decided to call in a real expert to assist: My friend Stacy Lomman! Stacy has decades of experience as a designer herself and now teaches fashion courses at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fitnyc.edu\/index.php\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fashion Institute of Technology <\/a>and other schools. She has a passion for fashion history and a love of interesting textiles. So here she is, lending me a hand, as we look over some clothes from my collection and hers.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Fe9shU9q1fQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/center><\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions about vintage clothes that haven&#8217;t been answered in the video series, feel free to leave them in the comments and I will get to them as soon as I can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year, I did four FAQ videos about vintage clothes.
