Tips for Getting the Best Valuation
Original 1960s–1970s pre-Lilly-died-1999 founder-era shift dresses are the entire collector market peak
Label is the era anchor: "Lilly Pulitzer" hand-typed labels = founder era; "Lilly Pulitzer Resort" later
Iconic prints (Mr. Peanuts, In the Beginning, How Now Sea Cow) sell 2–5x generic vintage prints
The 2015 Lilly for Target collab pieces, unworn with tags, sell $30–$200; worn $15–$60
Photograph the label, the print fully, and the side seam construction — those signal era unambiguously
Frequently Asked Questions
Are old Lilly Pulitzer dresses worth money?
Yes — original 1960s–1970s founder-era Lilly Pulitzer shift dresses sell $200–$2,000+ in good condition with intact label. The iconic prints (Mr. Peanuts, In the Beginning, How Now Sea Cow, anything Slim Aarons-aesthetic) are at the top. The market is concentrated on Instagram resellers, Etsy, and high-end vintage shops. Post-2000 Lilly Pulitzer is current retail-only on resale unless from a retired print.
Is the Lilly for Target collaboration still valuable?
Modestly. The 2015 Lilly for Target collection sold out in hours and triggered a flash resale market. Decade later, unworn-with-tags pieces sell $30–$200 depending on print and size; worn pieces $15–$60. Some prints (palm-print maxi dress, specific accessories) hold value better than others. Worth listing if NWT; not worth shipping if worn and basic.
Where should I sell vintage Lilly Pulitzer?
Etsy and Instagram vintage Lilly resellers are the strongest market for 1960s–1970s founder-era pieces. Poshmark handles the modern resort wear and Lilly for Target collab volume. eBay works for everything in between. Always include the print name (Lilly buyers search by print) and any label-era indicators in the title.
