(Who hasn’t?)
There are many tips for helping you to determine the era of your item. You can consult the VFG article Quick Tips for Dating Vintage and you are always welcome to visit our forums to ask for assistance.
Another tip is to go from the fabric perspective. Do you know the fiber used for the fabric of your vintage article of clothing? Here’s a helpful summary of how to burn test small swatches from an inconspicuous place on your item to determine the fiber.
Natural fibers (cotton, wool, silk and linen) have all been used to make fabric for a very long time. For instance, the domestication of wild sheep took place sometime before 6,000 B.C.E., and the earliest wool fleece and fibers positively identified date from about 4,000 B.C.E.

Many people make use of the Vintage Fashion Label Resource (102,133 have visited it so far this year), and many find bits of information that serve their purposes well. Some may even find a surprise. Such is likely to be the case for anyone looking up Jennifer Juniors. Written by one of our newest VFG Trade Members, Victoria of Vintagiality, the bio begins:
There’s little information about the company Jennifer Juniors except when referenced in passing as part of the detailed account of its owner, clothing manufacturer Abraham Zapruder’s witnessing of that moment in history on November 22, 1963 when John F. Kennedy was assassinated. Zapruder is best remembered today for his amateur 26 seconds of Kodachrome 8mm film of the shooting.
