Vintage Black America


As an avid lover of all things vintage, looking at these vintage photographs makes me appreciate the history and fashion sense of the African American Community and Black People in the Diaspora as a whole. As many sectors, seek to not glorify the good, these photos show the dignityimpeccable fashion sense, and history of  Black America. I wish could enter a time machine, going back to the 60's + 70's to experience Vintage Black America. It would have been everything I could have imagined and more. Now if only my mother would have saved more of her fabulous 70's/80's wardrobe for my sister's and I!

I say the same thing to my mother all the time! Why couldn't you save some of your 70s/80s wardrobe for me??

I am living for these images. So perfect. I wish people dressed like that now.
