Vintage clothing labels

I have always been a big fan of the labels found in vintage clothing. Such pretty typography!

If you’re a fan too, you simply must check out this Flickr set of vintage labels. I do think the Schiaparelli label above is my favorite.

You should create Colette labels (if you haven’t already) so that home sewers could place them in the finished garments. They could say, “A Colette Pattern As Sewn By Me.”
