Japanese Vintage Wear

Hi there!

Vintage wear is now in store! Making the debut are some japanese vintage dresses & skirt. 
Each piece is one-of-a-kind and are in wonderful condition. There is no visible stains nor tears, zips are working smoothly, buttons (if any) are securely sewn on (however buttons do show signs of age). 
Some of them are deadstock while others may be pre-loved. Either way, each piece has been carefully selected and checked for flaws. They aren't pristine due to age but the slight imperfections are what that give it its yesteryear charms.
Vintage wear shows really excellent and detailed sewing. Nothing beats the neat tiny stitches, tightly sewn hooks and impeccable workmanship on clothes of yesteryear. A far cry from the wide stitches, loosely sewn buttons that are seen on mass market clothes nowadays.
I hope I can find something that fits me the next time I go scavenging.
