What is the oldest thing in your wardrobe?

[babooshkadoll]

Velvet pea coat brought out every Christmas bought in a Next sale around 1995.
Older than my DCs still complimented on it.

A black full length halterneck vintage evening dress that was given to me by MIL.

A charcoal grey fleece jumper, purchased in 1994

I still have some bras from when I was 16!

Oh,and a bridesmaids dress my mother wore to one of her sister's wedding. Must be about 70 years old, immaculately made, by hand and a hand machine I would think. My DM still has her wedding dress .
I was given loads of coats Jaeger,Aquascutum,Crombie plus others and I have no idea what to do with them .
Perhaps I'll end up wearing them when the economy really goes bust.

I've got a few things from the early 90's, but the one in regular wear (circa 93) is a M&S microfibre slip that I wore as a 'dress' out clubbing and now wear sedately as an actual slip, and it still looks great

Wore my Etams trousers tonight, god knows how old they are ?!

An astrakhan jacket my sister bought second hand in Dublin in the late 80s -- don't know how old it is. Plus a box of all sorts of 80s clothes that the DCs raid for Hallowe'en, and boots of the same vintage. I also have two fine wool dresses I wore as a toddler. They were originally bought or maybe even hand made in the US and were at least third hand to me when I wore them in 1965/66.

A dark grey wool coat which comes out for funerals etc. It must be 20 years old!

1962 wiggle dress and jacket bought by my mother for a wedding. Of my own stuff a French Connection white broderie anglaise (?) top I bought in 1982, worn once or twice every summer ever since.
