Vintage is fashion!

First of all, let us get the terminology right: vintage is a word that fashion has robbed from the world of the art of wine-making, who used same to indicate the valuable vintage wines. At the beginning of the 1990's the term was used to ennoble all that came out of attics, wardrobes and cellars and that re-proposed as objects having a retrò flavour: not only with regard to dresses, but also furnishings, gifts and fancy goods and music... Successively, little by little, as it found itself among the marketplaces of the most trendy European cities, where used goods were sold, these items have now become vintage and in consequence a "humour. A taste that influences, with epoch pieces or "in style" of the ambiences of up to par fashion locales, that leave a trace of one's self in the collections of the stylists and personalizes the home interior with lines and motive of the years 1950's, 1960's and 1970's.
