Vintage versus Second Hand - Street Style
| Montreal StreetStyle |
Vintage, to me, is a one of a kind 1960's Chanel dress that came straight from the runway and has never been sold to anyone and has never been mass produced. This makes the dress not only unique, but vintage in a way that it has never been worn (except by the runway model at that time of course ), it's hand made with exclusive fabric and it's from a different and specific era.
Second hand or vintage; I love both, but I don't call it vintage if it's from a second hand store. So when it comes to fashion the word vintage means dated, classy and untouched. Second hand , on the contrary, means old and used. So these words are not synonyms, therefore I think they should be used wisely.
