How to find vintage style fashion

By Sisi Tsoi


Vintage clothing from the 1950's and 60's is back in style at the moment. High street shops are making clothes that mimic the style from this time. From flowing a-line style skirts for women to tailored suits and thin ties for men, it has never been cooler to dress like a mod.

Mod clothing is a style that was popular in the 1960's. Men who dressed in Mod clothing wore well tailored suits, stylish leather shoes and fur-lined parka coats. It was especially popular in the south of the UK - namely London and Brighton. Today, you can find Mod clothing in boutiques and in designer clothing stores - especially on London's Carnaby Street.

Vintage Mod clothing can be hard to find and rather expensive, especially if the item is in good shape. If you are desperate for a vintage suit, check e-bay or visit vintage shops in London, Brighton or your nearest gigantic city. Ask the individual working there if they have anything from the 1950's or 60's in stock. Even if they don't, they can point you in the right direction.

For inspiration men should wear long thin ties and a well fitted suit in brown or gray helping to give you a 'mod ' look.

The Mod style can be copied by buying clothing from high street stores or specialised designer outlets that base their range on mod clothing these clothes usually mimic the vintage fashion. For ladies, a miniskirt and sweater, or a short dress in a solid bold color with a belt across the waist. A short bob hair cut or half beehive and side swept fringe will execute the look. The high street chain Peacocks regularly sell mod style dresses, and SirenLondon's branded clothing store is a superb source of mod style clothing. It's totally kind to your wallet, extremely well made and well worth the cash if you want the mod look.

The mod clothing style was all about looking put together and fashionable. Liam and Noel Gallagher are known to dress in the mod style, as well as Paul Weller and the band the Rifles. Use these style icons to guide you the next time.
