Vintage 1970s Biba of London Blue Chevron Wool & Faux-Fur Belted Jacket w/ Skirt
About the Item
If you were an "It Girl" in London during the 1960's and 1970's, Biba is where you would have shopped. This super rare and ultra timeless royal-blue jacket ensemble, dating back to her 1973 fall-winter collection, is a perfect example of the brand's genius. It is fashioned from a fantastic fully-lined chevron patterned wool with all the classic hallmarks of Biba's best- skinny lean sleeves, hidden button closures and a dramatic deco waist belt. The jacket even has chic black faux-fur trimming that resembles Persian lamb. The silhouette really channels that late 1930's femme-fatale look Biba's founder, Barbara Hulanicki, loved so much. We added many pictures so you can appreciate this iconic ensemble.

There is an exhibition of his work currently running this year at the Phoenix Art Museum titled "MOVE: The Modern Cut of Geoffrey Beene". Through the exhibition it is explained, "Beene was a fashion rebel who ignored trends, instead preferring to design garments that began as geometric shapes and evolved into silhouettes that moved naturally with the human form."
