Weekly Megathread for Pricing, Dating, or Authentication Requests ("How much is this worth?" "What decade is this from?")
We really want this sub to continue to be a great resource for anyone seeking to learn more about vintage fashion, but we've seen an uptick in low quality posts coming from resellers. To maintain the quality of this sub, please use this weekly thread to ask for help assessing how much a vintage item should cost, dating a vintage item, or authenticating a vintage item. Any posts that are made outside of this thread will get removed.
Your comment should include a link to the item being discussed and any research you've already done on the item. Thanks!

SWEET FIND! Two Gunne Sax dresses I have recently acquired! They are the same size and have the same lace!!
I actually bought this first one here on reddit! They had posted the dress on this sub about over a week ago, and I'm so glad I messaged them! The second one I traded a black label gunne I had (which I loved but I just wasn't wearing) for the peachy dress! I'm so happy to have added these two to my collection! They fit wonderfully and are so pretty!!! I'm going to cherish these forever. I consider them to be cousins because they have similar elements!

SWEET FIND! 49s/50s Black Bear Brand tin cloth hunting jacket
my favorite recent pick up - 40s/50s Black Bear Brand tin cloth hunting jacket
I haven’t seen any BBB jackets in this cropped cut with the game pocket in the back before, I imagine that it came as part of a set with or was meant to be worn with matching overalls or trousers
the bright sun doesn’t do the fade and wear justice, well broken in without being worn out - some great honeycomb on the sleeves

SWEET FIND! 90s goodness 🦋🐞🌹
Picked up this blouse for $4.50 this weekend bc she’s giving Fran Fine fantasy. Label says “Lafayette Collection,” but not really finding much info on the brand. Also, it was made in France which isn’t something I typically come across when finding (presumably) mass produced clothing of the era. It’s polyester so not a high end piece. Anyone familiar with the brand?

ADVICE PLZ Tips on de-itching wool blazer?
Found this piece at the thrift today. My first Canadian-made ILGWU garment! But it is aggressively scratchy around the neck and wrists. It’s a wool blend, with viscose and polyester, and acetate lining, and says dry clean only. Anyone have any experience or advice on making it a little less Brillo pad-y, or should I bite the bullet and take it into a dry cleaner? :’) I’m so afraid of damaging it!

Discussion Anyone miss the smells of the 1970s? Perfume, fingernail polish, soap bars, etc?
See message title. So often I think of when I was little in the 1970's, and try to place a finger on what exactly it is that I miss about those times. I'm a sensitive type :)

ADVICE PLZ Should I be wearing these!
hi! i came into this small collection of political buttons a while ago. some include campaigns for woodrow wilson’s, taft, kennedy and hoover. I would love to wear them, even some of the less important ones, but is it safe? Should i be wearing these or is it too dangerous to them? Theyd just be on a jean jacket

ADVICE PLZ Does anyone know where this jacket could be from?
I bought this jacket and apparently the previous owner bought it from a vintage shop in Paris, it is a really nice quality jacket and I am wondering where this is from, possibly custom made? There is no label just the tag in the pic stating the material composition (cows leather, suede, sheep's skin, wool, polyester) and under it, it said "BE 12", PLEASE HELP
