American Apparel: California Select by Tim Yu
The clever retailers at American Apparel recently introduced California Select, a curated selection of the brand's favorite vintage finds culled from around the world. The pieces are one-of-a-kind and in keeping with their ongoing '70s soft-porn fashion aesthetic.
California Select is a lot like having your own personal stylist and it's a great easy way to shop for vintage clothing. The collection includes colorful dresses, vintage t-shirts, swimsuits, button-downs, sweaters and even some vintage high fashion labels. Check out the featured selections at American Apparel or go straight to their eBay storefront to see it all.
