18 People Proudly Flaunt the Vintage Clothes That Belonged to Their Parents and Grandparents

Not everyone is ready to wear clothes that have been worn by somebody else. But it’s a different thing when they belonged to a family member. The heroes of this article decided to flaunt the pieces that the previous generations of their families used to wear.

“Three generations, one dress (grandma — 1964, mom — 1991, and me — 2017)”

“My mother-in-law gave me the dress she wore in high school in Lake Tahoe in the 1960s.”

“My mom desperately trying not to cry when my sister picked her wedding dress.”

“1972, my mom at age 13 wearing her grandmother’s dress”

“My mom’s senior dance dress (from 30 years ago) fits me and even matches my hair!”

“My grandma and I spent a day in wedding dresses! I’m in my mother’s, and she is in her own.”

“My grandma, mom, and I wearing the same kimono. Years: 1958, 1979, 2012”

“My grandmother at a homecoming football game in 1957, and me in the same dress 60 years later”

“My dad asked to borrow my leaver’s suit for a work outing.”

“Our honeymoon in Scotland: the family kilt my husband wore when he married me and the family kilt his grandmother gave me before she passed”

“My sister gave me this dress, but I have no idea what occasion to wear it on.”

“Channeling mean girl energy in my mom’s 1970s cheerleading jacket”

“My great-grandmother in her wedding dress (1944) and my mother wearing it in 1985 (she had it altered quite a bit). We still own it and hopefully, I’ll be able to wear it for my wedding.”

“My grandma’s hand-sewn dress from 1920!”

“My grandmother sewed my mom’s wedding dress, and I had it altered for my wedding.”

“Me in my grandma’s cardigan, probably from the late 1980s. They still have shoulder pads, my grandma hated them and every time she used to cut them off.”

“I cleaned out Grandpa’s house a couple of weeks ago. I took an old suit he wore in the 70s. He also gave me this organ.”

“I wore my mother’s wedding dress from 1977 when I got married in 2019.”
