About the Item
This magnificent 1970s pin tucked cotton blouse and skirt set in deep crimson is from the most famous of the Mexican labels Tachi Castillo. The blouse has long sleeves with featuring ruffle trim on the cuffs, front opening and hem plus a large statement ruffle all the way around the neckline.

The full ankle length matching skirt also has a ruffle hem with more infrequent pin tuck detail than the blouse and fastens with a zip at the side. Both pieces are in excellent condition and the colour is beautifully fresh and bright. Would best suit a US size 10, UK size 14.

1970s Caroline Charles Cotton Striped Blouse and Skirt Ensemble
By Caroline Charles
Located in London, GB
This is a late 1970s or early 1980s ensemble by Caroline Charles, a well-known designer on the London circuit who has made beautiful formal wear and fine quality day clothes since the 1960s. This cotton suit is made up of a triple tiered skirt, belt and blouse and reminds of the 'peasant chic' look that Yves Saint Laurent was designing in the late 70s as part of his Ballet Russes collection. The blouse is high-necked with neat puff shoulders and tapered, gathered cuffs. The blouse is not lined whilst the skirt is fully lined in black cotton. The original wide fabric belt is retained, and we would suggest the blouse could be tucked into the skirt but also be fastened over the top and cinched in with the fabric belt.
In very good vintage condition overall; the blouse appears to have been worn more than the skirt, which together with the belt, are in excellent condition. The skirt and blouse are labelled Caroline Charles and marked UK size 10. This is best suited in modern sizing to UK size 6-8, US size 2-4 on account of the waist measurements for the skirt, although the top could be worn by a size bigger.
Notes on Designer:
Caroline Charles began her design career after a couture appenticeship and a stint at Mary Quant. She was a founding designer at London Fashion Week and during the swinging 60s, her collections were worn by Lulu, Marianne Faithful and Cilla Black...
