I’ve often lamented not being born in an earlier era (I’m a nostalgic by nature), and though I recognise my own tendency to look at bygone eras through rose-tinted glasses, there’s something to be argued about the cost of a designer bag then versus now.
Take the iconic (and aptly named) Chanel Timeless bag, for example: launched in 1983 at £860, it now retails for over £8,900. The good people at Vestiaire understand this, which is why they are celebrating the enduring allure of vintage style with a new campaign: Vintage Pieces at Vintage Prices.
