1960’s Cole of California Leopard Print Bathing Suit With Cover Up Pants

Name: 1960’s Cole of California Leopard Print Bathing Suit With Cover Up Pants
Brand: Cole of California
Rating: 5 (117 reviews)

About the Item

Cole of California has the purrrfect look for Cat Woman’s day at the beach ... a simply fabulous leopard print one piece bathing suit with corset style lace up front and deep plunge back. And when you need more than just a suit for sun bathing, don a coordinating wide legged pull on pant to complete a feline look. The suit has a full coverage cut with built-in cups and button straps which provide an adjustable fit. Both pieces are nylon though the swimsuit fabric has a substantive thicker feel and a matte look whereas the coordinating pants are a slinky nylon. Meow!! CONDITION Both pieces are in good condition with the suit showing more signs of wear and the pants indicating very little wear. The suit has a tendency to ‘pill’ as indicated in photograph 12 though the textural difference is camouflaged by the print. There is some fading to the black lining at the seam of the crotch. Though both pieces are a coordinating leopard print, the lighter colors on the swimsuit appear to be a yellower shade which may be due to the difference in texture. Please note: the pull-on pants have an elasticized waistband and there is a side slit by design which is not a flaw and allows for easy on and off. SIZING & MEASUREMENTS The pieces are marked a size 12 and fit a modern U.S. size 6 - 8. The following measurements were taken without stretching the fabric though there is plenty of stretch. For visual reference, the mannequin in the photographs is a size 4 and the suit was too large for a proper fit.

MARY MCFADDEN Black Romper Jumpsuit, 1970's

By Mary McFadden

Located in Atlanta, GA

Fun and fabulous 1970’s Mary McFadden black romper jumpsuit with exotic braided belt. The jumpsuit zips at the front to the waist and has a collarless plunging neckline with hidden hooks, if modesty is required. The design is executed in McFadden’s signature micro pleated fabric similar to Mario Fortuny’s creations. The legs are bubble style and give the hint of a harem pant. The skinny sleeves are almost a mutton style with a slight puff at the shoulder. The former owner added the braided belt which adds a touch of rich burgundy red color and antiqued metallic shine but there are so many ways to style this design including a different belt or forgo something at the waist for a dramatic collar necklace. Footwear could also create a different vibe … anything from boots to strappy heels to pointy mules. This jumper may...
