The VFG believes that informed selling and buying communities are good for the vintage-fashion industry as a whole, and all visitors to the website have access to the VFG resources. These are continually updated and constantly evolving, thanks to a dedicated volunteer staff.
Our blog features our picks of the freshest vintage items, member news and articles. We have also created a growing series of articles on some classic designers.
The Vintage Fashion Guild™ (VFG) is an international organization dedicated to the promotion and preservation of vintage fashion.
The Vintage Fashion Guild™ (VFG) is an international community of people with expertise in vintage fashion. VFG members enjoy a wealth of resources, avenues for promoting their shops and specialties, and camaraderie with others who share a common interest and passion.
Novelty Labels are not a particular label, but a category of fun labels. Novelty labels have cute graphics or clever names. Sometimes they incorporate puns or jokes. You see novelty labels as early as the 1920s and they are still being produced today. Sometimes a major company, such as Wrangler, will produce a label that can be categorized as a novelty.
This page is dedicated to the memory of Mary Catherine Lamb, VFG member and special-label collector.
