1960s Couture Silk Bamboo Ivory Green & Gold Leaf Print Maxi Side Pleat Skirt

About the Item

The designer of this skirt is unknown, but that makes it no less spectacular. Featuring an absolutely gorgeous bamboo and leaf print in rich green hues on ivory silk dupioni, the custom-made piece is striking and incredibly unique. The textile slubs lend a subtle texture and dimensionality to the print, which is further enhanced by the metallic gold flecks that highlight the verdure. The styling on the A-line silhouette is clean and elegant. It has a banded waistline, flat front and figure-flattering wide pleats at the sides and back. While it was made in the Sixties, the look is timeless. Even paired with a simple white or black top, it would still make an impression at a semiformal or formal event today. Size estimate: S Measurements Waist: 24 - 25 inches Hip: 34-36 inches Length: 42.5 inches This vintage floor-length skirt from the 1960s is in excellent condition. It is custom-made from ivory silk dupioni and features a bamboo and leaf print in rich green hues. The print is highlighted by metallic gold accents. The A-line silhouette has a banded waistline, hidden zipper, flat front and wide pleats at the sides and back. The skirt is fully lined. High-quality vintage pieces like this are yours to live in and love while increasing in value every year. It’s never too soon to start collecting them, as an investment in your wardrobe—and in yourself.

  • Dries Van Noten Sheer Silk Printed Pleated Skirt, Runway 2008
    By Dries van Noten
    Located in Boca Raton, FL
    A remarkable talent of 21st century design, Dries Van Noten quickly captivated the world of fashion with his equally wearable and conceptual garments. Opening his Paris boutique in 2007 and then recognized by CFDA in 2008, Van Noten’s Fall 2008 collection stands as a monument to the designer’s growing acclaim. Implementing his signature abstract florals and unique color stories, the collection gave a psychedelic ethnic mood that is encompassed in this pleated, sheer, silk skirt. Sitting promptly at the waist with an austere black waist band, the delicate skirt is a sensory explosion of colors featuring tones of yellow ochre, mauve, red, and blue-green. The print rhythmically moves with the pleats slightly accentuating the hips as it moves into the dynamic, calf-length handkerchief hem. A vintage aura adds a particular charm to the seemingly futuristic print...

    1980s French Flare Skirts

  • Mod Purple and White Polka Dot Maxi Wrap Skirt, 1970s
    Located in Boca Raton, FL
    The Mod style is one of the most iconic fashion eras. Rising in the late 1950s to 1960s, the Mod style grew out of the rising British youth culture and were characterized by juvenile silhouettes, and soft coordinated colors. The Mod style is emblematic of an easy cool and a carefree lifestyle. This midi length jersey wrap skirt features a polka-dot print of lavender, lilac, and royal purple dots trimmed in white on a black ground. The chunky dot shapes are reminiscent of the headlights on the iconic Mod Vespa motor scooters that likely inspired this 1970s design. The skirt along the front, and at the waistband is bordered in a royal purple that provides necessary balance as the dot pattern snakes across the skirt in a dynamic diagonal route. Additionally, the wild print is made more extreme by the waist pleats that impart an additional layer of undulation to the design. With a rather straight silhouette, this skirt mixes classic lines with a vibrant monochromatic print. Size estimate: XS/S Measurements: Waist: 24 inches Hips: 36 inches Length: 35.5 inches Made of smooth poly jersey and lined in a purple poly crepe, this skirt is a fun, classic, and quirky vintage style. Through the hips it has a traditional pencil skirt fit that flares slightly as it goes to the hem. On the waistband, the skirt can be fitted and adjusted with hidden snaps and a two-toned mauve and crème coloured button. This unlabelled vintage wrap skirt...
