Looks Like New

If you are a fan of thrift shopping but prefer not to hunt for name-brand gems buried beneath used thongs, consider perusing twentieth-century fashions at the Miami Vintage Clothing Show. Today and Sunday, high-quality dealers will feature vintage clothing and accessories from the Twenties to the Eighties. Items range from a $35 Seventies sundress to an $800 classic Pucci getup from the Sixties. The show is sponsored by Back-In-Style.com, a vintage garb Website; and the Woman’s Club of Coconut Grove, where the event will be held.

“There is something for everyone -- even a dealer of vintage men’s clothing,” says Gretchen Rust, co-owner of Back-In-Style. Admission proceeds will benefit future Woman’s Club projects -- which, with any luck, don’t involve shopping.
