Vintage Designer Items That Are Worth The Splurge This Summer

It’s no secret that fashion moves in cycles and what was once in decades ago tends to find it’s way back into our closets. And—if you’re one of the lucky ones, your mom’s perfectly worn in denim jacket from 1991 is currently hanging in your closet, or maybe you even inherited a pair of your grandmother’s vintage Manolo mules. The best part about cyclical fashion in 2018? Almost every decade from the past is now fair game. Yes, 90’s fashion is the most popular, but if you’re obsessed with the 70’s, flared jumpsuits with plunging necklines are for you this summer. More of an 80’s gal? Denim on denim is not only acceptable, it’s trending hard.

If you’re like many of us and weren’t lucky enough to receive fashionista hand me downs, don’t fret! There are many places to purchase vintage designer items in great shape, like our personal office favorite, TheRealReal, which carries vintage and current designer items for a fraction of retail.

Each decade saw its share of “it” designer items. Below are the ones that are making a huge comeback this summer.
