I've spent about 9 hours working through mounds, bags, boxes, totes, trunks of hoarded clothing and there are a few treasures that I hope will clean properly (laundry will be my life) so that I can bring them to my customers.
A few of the items:
50s summer dresses and skirts
Mostly 60s/70s blouses, white, frilly, casual camp shirts, summer sleeveless and dressy
A cache of 80s colorful brights (we'll see how that goes)
Pretty lingerie and vintage pajamas
A few wild 60s/70s mod pieces
And something I've never seen before: 40s thigh high argyle and checked knit stockings. I've seen and have old nylon/silk stockings but not "sport" stockings like these.
Most of these items were never worn with their original manufacturer or store tags but given the less than stellar storage conditions, every piece of clothing will need to be cleaned, pressed and will be paired with their original tags clipped onto my shop hang tags. Most are around a modern size 6 or small.
I expect loss in processing but I brought home 6 large bags of clothes so good stuff is coming. It will take a few weeks for these items to filter into the shop.
