The crop top first took hold of fashion during the ‘30s and ‘40s, mainly as swimwear but occasionally as a standalone top because of wartime fabric rationing. By the ‘60s and ‘70s, crop tops had arrived at the doors of mainstream fashion with stars like ‘I Dream of Genie’s Barbara Eden and pretty-French muse Jane Birkin leading the way. By the 1980s, crop tops were made cool again by aerobics-obsessed media like the movie ‘Flashdance’ and with Madonna’s mesh crop top in her ‘Lucky Star’ video. Crop tops are a staple of today’s fashion because they were a staple of ‘90s fashion because they were a staple of ‘70s fashion. Whatever your retro crop top inspo, Unique Vintage has the perfect piece for you.
