I tried on my grandma’s clothes from college – the 70s styles look so good and the orange dress is ‘such a vibe’

WHEN one modern woman raided her grandmother’s closet, she didn’t expect to find eye-catching styles in a rainbow of trendy colors.

Viewers loved the looks Abigail Smith (@abigail_leigh8) served up, with one dress in particular earning accolades.

All of grandma’s clothes were well-preserved from her high school and college years.

In her TikTok video, Smith held up a photo of her grandma at a young age, showing the family resemblance in their smiles.

She made her way through her grandmother’s wardrobe, starting with a bright-pink dress with a delicate, embroidered yoke.

Next up was a two-piece set in a cool, seafoam green.

The mid-thigh skirt coordinated perfectly with a vest-style top with big lapels and six vintage buttons.

Smith posed, then sashayed toward the camera for her transformation.

In a flash, she was wearing an orange a-line dress.

The creamsicle color scheme was totally retro, as were the star-shaped cutouts at the waist.

Next, she sported a green dress with a similar hem.

This style had a sculpted bustier and white lapels that matched the cuffs on the ends of the sleeves.

When Smith turned slightly, she revealed the tie at the back of the green dress.

In a twist, the final dress Smith wore was one she’d made herself, using the pattern from one of her grandmother’s other outfits.

Viewers were bowled over by the super-stylish collection.

“Total blast from the past. So cute,” one fan wrote. “Grandma had major style and fashion sense.”

Another commenter said, “The first pink one is CLASSIC! Love the orange one too!”

Countless admirers expressed Smith’s orange dress was the best of the bunch.

Several even offered to buy the dress or the pattern.

“I NEED THE ORANGE DRESS,” one desperate commenter wrote, shouting in all-caps.

Smith wasn’t upset by the demand, though. “IT IS SUCH A VIBE,” she wrote back, clearly understanding the fervor.

A few commenters loved the dresses, but for nostalgic reasons – like one woman who’d had similar clothes in her own college wardrobe.

“I knew it was the 70s because I recognized some of the styles,” she joked.

“I can’t believe how every item is so pristine after so many years,” a disbelieving fan said.
