1. Chelsea Girl (www.chelsea-girl.com)
Full of designer vintage such as Dior eveningwear, and cute daytime duds from Diane Von Furstenburg and Lanvin (think colourful minis and classic A-lines), this site is a one-stop-shop for fabulous finds at great prices. At the time of this writing, we were salivating over a 1980s Lillie Rubin Jersey Tunic mini in mauve with beaded detailing of the shoulder for US$185. Here, the work is done for you. Everything on the site is on-trend, meaning all your have to do is sit back, relax and order knowing that your new duds will leave you looking stylish and fashion-forward.
2. Vintage Vixen (www.vintagevixen.com)
Detailed categories make it easy to find what you’re looking for. For example, there are sections for several types of dresses – mini, cocktail, evening and day – rather than just "dresses." Prices are very reasonable and clicking on any item yields several photos displaying the item at various angles. Close-ups of detailing such as buttons and embroidery are common. At the time of writing, with a chill in the air, we are coveting a three-quarter length 1960s cream quilted wool coat by Andre Laug, priced at US$350.
3. Rusty Zipper (www.rustyzipper.com)
Anything you could ever want from the 1940s to the 1970s is here, in this online warehouse for unique vintage finds – at a bargain – like '60s-era cocktail dresses for under US$50, knit minis from the '70s for under US$30 and fitted '50s-era suits for under US$50. The site is easy to navigate and international orders are usually shipped within 14 business days. The selection of accessories is also ample and includes shoes, belts, gloves, bags, scarves and even glasses.
4. Vintage Couture (www.vintagecouture.com)
This is where the serious shoppers come to play. Balenciaga? Dior? Gucci? They’ve got it all. Prepare to pay for what you get, but if it's high-fashion vintage you’re after, they will have it here. Cocktail dresses, outerwear, accessories and jackets are handpicked with a discerning eye for trends. Colours are bold and each piece here will be sure to make a statement.
