"Oscar de la Renta Boutique. Pauline Trigère. A little black dress from Dior. If just seeing those words on your screen sets your heart racing, follow us:  There are racks of vintage clothing websites, but we especially like Kitty Girl Vintage, which launched almost 10 years ago. You won't find piles of clothing to sift through. Instead, a well-edited selection of pretty-darn-fabulous dresses, purses, shoes, and jewelry.
Right now, there's a 1920s silk chiffon day dress ($120), a neon orange quilted car coat in mint condition ($95), and a super-sophisticated Dior evening suit from the 1950s for $595. "

Secondhand Chic by Christa Weil

I have a silly little quote in this book about how much I love vintage tailored wool gabardine suits and coats. An excellent resource book for those who want to start buying secondhand, vintage and consignment! Includes chapters on fabric care, how fabric is made, kinds of fabric, how to select quality clothing, how to profit from your secondhand purchases, flaws, and the fundamentals of buying secondhand. I highly recommend this book.

My beautiful Lilli Ann black coat (with tassels) already arrived today!! So even with the normal shipping, it arrived quite fast. I am really happy, again, it is another wonderful item I bought from your website, no disappointment whatsoever. I am planning to wear it Monday evening for a cocktail! Canan, Paris, France

Just got back into town to find my order waiting for me (I'm a pilot who dreams of vintage clothes while flying and dreams of flying while wearing vintage on the ground...). The bag is great and the coat is so beautiful! Stephanie, Chicago

The dress I ordered arrived this morning and fits like a glove...the detail of the darts provides a very elegant and flattering line to my figure. I will be wearing it Christmas Eve. Very satisfied with it and extremely impressed regarding your service (and the postal service)...seven days to get here...not bad! Mary, England

Just a note to let you know that the rose-print dress arrived today and it's an absolute knock-out.  Thank you so much.  I look forward to shopping with you again in the near future! Tara, NY

...I gave her the dress and trapeze coat as belated Christmas gifts. She again was speechless and had to try the dress and coat on right then and there. She giggled like a teenage girl at prom when they fit. I thought she was going to hyperventilate .........LOL She then had to put on the whole ensemble both coats and modeled for me all evening. It was the funniest thing and also one of the most beautiful things to see a grown woman become a little girl again at Christmas. Judy is a very hard working woman (nurse) who also takes care of her invalid mother who needs 24X7 care. Your beautiful dresses, coats and accessories brighten her day and are welcome distraction.  Thank you again for your keen eye and exquisite taste in sourcing only the best in vintage. Judy is hopelessly addicted to your web site. Lonnie, Rancho Cordova, CA

Thank you so much. I love your web site I lived in Manhattan for 13 years and study fashion at FIT , but unfortunately where I am from there are not many clothing stores, well none really. So when I moved back home in 2003  I discovered your website and have been hooked every since!!!! It amazing and thank you. Katie, New Jersey

Just got home from a long day a work, and there was your package.  I never expected to receive it so quickly.  I LOVE this dress.  I love vintage dresses and have been collecting them for many years.  This one, is a winner.  I am so excited.  I would keep it long if I had black tie affairs.  I cannot thank you enough.  It is perfect. 
With much appreciation,
Carmel, New Jersey

Hello, Wendy.  Whew!  I just finished trying on this unusual and beautiful dress, and I am thrilled...I originally got it on backwards - you had to have been here - and then got stuck in it and had to have Rick's help, but once I stopped laughing....it actually fits wonderfully.  AND I don't believe the flaws are noticeable.  I love these vintage designer dresses, as they have so much character, they are unique, and beautifully designed and created.  I ADORE the sweetheart neckline.  I am so GLAD I purchased this one from you, and I thank you very much for your LARGE photo that pushed me over the top!  It is always a pleasure to deal with you, Wendy, and until next time. Thank you SO MUCH for the great customer service, friendly and helpful email.... and your lightening-fast and well-packed GORGEOUS delivery! Debbie, Reno, NV

I received the Peggy Hunt black dress today and LOVE IT!!!!  Thanks so much for sending it so carefully packed.  It is in such beautiful condition. Elizabeth, Malibu, CA

Last year I bought two stunning Dior pieces from you: black satin cocktail dress and a late 60s Mod Coat. I keep getting pipped to the post by other buyers on some of your couture pieces - your site really is the best vintage site I've come across and I'd really love to get my hands on some of your special post war pieces. - Adriana, United Kingdom

Just wanted to let you know that I received the (70's Halston silk crepe wrap dress) on Monday afternoon.  It fits perfectly (like it was made for me) and I love it. Thanks so much for your prompt response to my various requests.     Barbara

I am more than pleased.  Thank you so much for the hat and for the entire day's work.  I will certainly be coming to you for all of my future projects, which with any luck, will boast increasingly larger art direction budgets for me to have fun with.  Jessica, New York, NY

Many thanks for sending me the Ceil Chapman dress - it is beautiful. The style is magical and the fabulous colours in the fabric are just right to wear it for my wedding in Barbados next month. Thank you, Linda

I love, love, love the Halston. It is really beautiful, the quality of the silk is amazing and I love the weight at the bottom of the skirt. It has truly been a pleasure doing business with you. I will certainly keep your contact information for jobs (and, of course, personal too) in the future. Maya, Los Angeles, Ca

your absolutely GORGEOUS (60s Saks Pucci print silk jersey gown) dress has just arrived over here. It is so beautiful and fits perfectly ! I am very happy. I'll watch all your wonderful offers in your shop from now on and - for sure. You are the BEST !!! (lay-outs, descriptions, pictures a PLEASURE ! - even only to look at).
DANKESCHÖN - as we say over here
All the best to you and till next time

Christa / planmuc from Germany

Just got back from FL last night and opened my last items from you-I just love buying from you--no nasty surprises ever--everything is always clean, fresh, and the way you describe it. Kudos to you and Thanks~! Judith, Minnesota

My dress came in, the metallic red one with the black chenille threads all over it.  It's hard to know what to say: I think it's one of the most stunning dresses I've ever seen.  Absolutely gorgeous, fits to a tee, is classy, not over-the-top, chic.  I'm in love.  Thanks a lot!!! Alayne, Australia

I love the dress! It fits perfectly & it's so pretty! Please keep looking for more items for me, I love your taste! SD New Jersey

I couldn't believe the condition of the skirt (I hope I'm in as good a condition at that age), it was unbelievable, infact when I showed the skirt to my friend I had to show her your website because she didn't believe me.  It was a lovely surprise to find the top included in the parcel.  I hope to maybe become a regular visitor and customer of your website in the future, especially when I can rely on the accuracy of your statements with regards to the clothing. Thanks again for all your help and efficiency. Andrea,  Northern Ireland.

I just wanted to let you know that I got the dress on Wednesday, and this is the dress that I'm looking for !! I thank you so much for sending me such a beautiful dress. I will visit your website in the near future. I thank you again. Shingo, Japan

Had a wonderful surprise after I got home from my sons football game. I had two great looking dresses waiting.  I just love them and both fit.
I tried them on for my husband and he loves the blue print/solid dress
along with the strapless(well almost strapless) dress.  Thanks for having a
great web page. iplan on shopping there again.-CS

The dress (item #WCNA91 )arrived today. It is as sweet as can be, and fits
perfectly. Thanks for the fast delivery.-LL

Love your website. Of all the sites you have the best selection of printed
1930's rayon dresses I have ever seen. -Vocalist and
vintage swing band leader Peggy Cone - NYC.

I just wanted to say thanks for another great Kitty Girl dress. You always
have such wonderful clothes and my latest purchase is no exception. It's in
wonderful condition - even better than described - and a great "lunch with
the girls" dress as you suggested.  Thanks goodness for Kitty Girl. Taylor-Florida

... Just wanted to let you know that the package arrived yesterday.   The dresses are awesome.  I am very pleased with the quality and wearability of the dresses.-RP Oregon
