Pretty Little Labels

Whenever we buy something new (vintage, of course!) for the shop, I always check to see if there's a label in it. I love that so many vintage labels looked like handwritten script or had little unique motifs on them to give them some character. The right typography can be a powerful thing! These are a few of my favorites over the years:

 Note: I could not figure out what the last name on this first tag is! Alaiu? Olaire? Alaine?...I'd love to hear suggestions!













 




I'm excited to see what else is out there in the world of vintage labels! What are some of your favorites?

    1. Me too, Robin! They're so easy to overlook sometimes, but the good ones are difficult to forget - finding them is one of the best parts of thrifting for sure! :)
