1990s Escada Navy Embroidered Fruit Salad Top

About the Item

This is a really fun 1990s piece by Escada when they were very high profile and considered a luxury brand. The novelty 'fruit salad' design is of embroidered motifs that represent strawberries and pineapples in a pink, yellow, purple, and russet orange colour combination. The composition is formed by machine stitching and little gold balls have also been appliqued to represent the pineapple cone husks stylistically. The strawberry motifs have an embroidered 3-D applique to represent the green foliage. The navy knit itself is a really nice quality, medium weight cotton with short sleeves and a wide rib band that sits just below the waistline. Labelled a European 40. This equates to a UK size 12 or US size 8 but it's quite a generous oversized piece and would fit several sizes bigger or smaller depending on the wearer’s preference. It's in really great vintage condition and has seen little wear; the motifs are really bright and fresh looking. MEASUREMENTS Bust - 46 in. (117 cm) Waist - 42 in. (106 cm) Hip Unstretched - 41 in.

  • 1970s Ossie Clark Navy Floral Print Blouse with Celia Birtwell Print
    By Ossie Clark
    Located in London, GB
    This is a phenomenal 1970s Ossie Clark boutique blouse with an important and well documented print by Celia Birtwell. It is fully labelled and additionally has the Quorum boutique retail label which sold Ossie's costly mainline collections - they are much rarer than Radley retailed pieces. There are some wonderful softer design details in this blouse from the puff sleeves to the long tapered cuffs and the gathered yoke giving it a loose romantic poet's style aesthetic as the blouse is without darts. The print is a very beautiful floral design against a navy background in quality rayon fabric. This is a remarkable piece of fashion history and has been in my personal collection for years but it is time for someone else to enjoy it. The condition is very good overall. There is slight fade on the sleeve elements of the arm - this is more noticeable on the right side than the left - the photos are a good representation and this never bothered me as it is so slight. Additionally there are two very small, minor grazes on the back towards the top of the neck; not quite holes but the fabric has thinned. They are not noticeable when worn. The last very minor issue is there is a small stress parting along the seam on the left forearm sleeve. This is on the underside and therefore cannot be seen when worn. This has been dry cleaned and is ready to wear and I can be seen modelling this top for a vintage photo...
