Vintage Minute

By | May 5, 2008

I’ve recently been rediscovering the joy and despair of scouring eBay for plus-size vintage (motivated by the ever-fabulous stitchtowhere’s powerful thrift-fu), and while I do occasionally find something in my size that does not cost a million dollars, most of what I uncover is stuff that is just barely too small for me.

In that vein, and in the interest of sharing already-scarce fatshion resources, I’d just as soon start sharing some of these awesome finds here.

The dress I found today is just such an example: a rayon 1940s-era dress in a cheery floral print, just a couple inches too small for me on all fronts. Heartbreaking! Hopefully someone reading this can fit it, and likes it as much as I do.

(Just to be clear, I have not sold on eBay in many years, and get nothing for promoting strangers’ auctions here. I am doing so exclusively in the interest of helping other fashionable fat folks to find awesome vintage gear. So there.)
