MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Many enjoyed looking for unique items during Wisconsin Vintage Fest on Sunday, Dec. 3.
"I'm trying to be more experimental with what I wear and seeing what they have," Milwaukee resident Ashley Miller said. "I'm looking for some vintage pieces and maybe some jackets."
Over 100 Midwest vendors brought blasts from the past to the main concourse inside Fiserv Forum for the event.
"I think it's pretty funny that now things I used to wear back in the 70s and 80s are really popular. So, it's kind of fun to see what the fashion is today," Milwaukee resident Mitch Miller said.
But it was not just gently used items from your dad's closet. Some small businesses were also on display.
"They'll ask me if it's vintage, but I will be like, 'No, I made it.' Then they're like, 'This is even better'," Shop Tokki Star Owner Abby Moon-Sarudi said.
Moon-Sardui sells handmade items with original character designs and had a booth during Vintage Fest.
"So, I make stickers, keychains, buttons, print shirts," she explained.
She tells CBS 58 that events like this help support artists and entrepreneurs while allowing them to sell in person.
"There is just so much going on, so many things to look at," she said. "It's much better than selling online because I get to interact with people, and that's always like a really awesome thing."
