It's not a shocker when we say that a fair amount of snobbery goes on in the vintage community. Whether someone is being called out for wearing repro, or not being 'authentic' enough because they use social media (come on, we saw you insta your veggie katsu curry from wagas last week), it happens, and it happens a lot. However; the scene is called 'vintage' for a reason. It is old. The world has moved on from these days and we are the ones that have gone out of our way to bring it back. By all means, wear the gorgeous clothes, the pristine deadstock, listen to the music, imitate the style... But please, just leave the mindset behind.
