The Vintage Fashion Guild's mission is to become the international voice of the vintage fashion industry and its leading authority.

Its objectives are to:

Protect the interests of vintage vendors and encourage good practice.
Elevate the standard of dependability among sellers to stimulate buyers' and collectors' confidence that items are accurately represented in terms of age, style, details and condition.
Raise awareness of vintage fashion and provide a forum to bring together buyers and sellers.
Establish a central educational resource available to both buyers and sellers.
Create a positive environment for and enhance the image of vintage clothing.
Encourage the conservation and wearing of vintage fashion to preserve the history, availability and survival of vintage clothing in future years.
Position vintage clothing as a viable, attractive and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional fashion.
