The ins and outs of vintage fashion in St. Louis
In honor of St. Louis Fashion Week, we go behind the counter at Rag-O-Rama to see what sells and what stinks in the hip world of vintage clothing. A men's version of the fashion game may come around if the masses call for it.

A no on this shirt as well. Beausang said Rag-O-Rama accepts only about 8 to 10 percent of submitted clothing.
