Fashion Always Comes Back Around
Every era has its iconic pieces-those instantly recognizable garments that defined a generation. And today? They're making a major comeback, especially in their vintage versions.
At United Vintage, we receive weekly bales packed with treasures straight from these legendary decades. Here are 5 pieces that made fashion history... and that you can still score with us.
📍1.The 70s - The Wide-Collar Disco Shirt
This decade was all about disco, bold statements, and daring silhouettes. The wide, pointed collar shirt-often printed or satin-is the ultimate 70s icon.
Why it's iconic:
It screams Saturday night fever and the glam energy of bands like the Bee Gees.
👕 Want to try the look?
👉 Check out our men's or women's "Branded" bales to hunt down pieces like these. Full retro vibes guaranteed.
📍2.The 80s - The Oversized Jacket
Big shoulders, shiny fabrics, and fearless shapes-the 80s went all out. The oversized jacket (denim, leather, or bomber-style) is a perfect example.
Why it's iconic:
It's a true statement piece that instantly gives attitude to any outfit.
🧥 Our "Jackets & Coats" bales are packed with 80s gems.
👉 Take a look-you might even find some iconic brand names in the mix.
📍3.The 90s - The High-Waisted Jeans
Stiff, straight-leg, high-rise denim with zero stretch: 90s jeans are back in a big way-and we love it. It's the must-have piece for a real vintage look.
Why it's iconic:
It shapes your silhouette, delivers an effortless look, and pairs with literally everything.
👖 No lie-our denim bales fly off the shelves.
👉 Grab yours now-straight-leg, mom fit, regular... there's always a mix.
🧠 Pro tip: Since bales are random, you might not get your exact size. Don't stress-resell or trade the ones that don't fit. Some of our clients have even turned that into a business!
📍4.The 2000s - The Track Suit with Stripes
Back to Y2K with Adidas or Kappa sets, snap-button pants, and a sport-chic vibe. Totally back in style among archive and streetwear lovers.
Why it's iconic:
It captures the bold, playful spirit of the 2000s, now reinterpreted by today's fashion trends.
👟 Our sportswear boxes are often filled with pieces in this style.
📍5.The 2010s - The Minimalist Hoodie
Already vintage? Yes! The early 2010s gave rise to a clean, minimal aesthetic influenced by skaters, artists, and rising streetwear brands.
Why it's iconic:
It's unisex, comfy, and super versatile-wear it oversized, fitted, layered, or solo.
