1970s LEONARD Fashion Paris Brown Animal Leopard Print Wool Blend Knit Top

About the Item

Sophisticated Léonard Fashion Paris leopard print wool blend knit top in shades of brown from the 1970s. The eye-catching vintage Léonard Fashion Paris top is the different-coloured and slightly bigger twin of the one in black and cream available here as well. The design features one of Léonard Paris's signature prints, the leopard print, in delicious shades of caramel and chocolate brown on a sand-coloured backdrop. The slightly waisted top has a crew neck, 7/8 sleeves and a center back zip closure. It is made from one of the houses signature materials, a wool blend called "Crylor et laine". The top is labeled "LEONARD FASHION PARIS" and tagged a French size 3. Super easy to wear and to travel with! Léonard was founded when Jacques Léonard asked Daniel Tribouillard in 1958 to join the company as the designer of a new business, Léonard Fashion. In 1968, Tribouillard presented his first collection of printed silk jersey dresses with a slogan emphasizing the lightness of the fabric: "The Léonard Dress: 150g of happiness". Only a few years later, the House began to produce silk scarves, ties and perfumes. Léonard is known for their fabulous floral and animal prints. Excellent vintage condition. Shoulders: 36 cm – 14.17" Bust: 98 cm – 38.58" Waist: 95 cm – 37.40" Hips: 97 cm – 38.2" Sleeve length: 51 cm – 20.1" Total length: 68 cm – 26.8" Measurements are taken flat across from side seam to side seam and then doubled for bust, waist and hips.

  • S/S 2004 PRADA Runway Beige Brown Python Leather Belted Trench Coat
    By Miuccia Prada, Prada
    Located in Munich, DE
    This exceptional coat was Look 3 in the Spring 2004 line-up from fashion icon Miuccia Prada. Vogue Runway said of this collection: "Over almost a decade of ground-breaking experimentalism, Miuccia Prada has explored everything from irony to deliberate ugliness to intellectual subversion. She’s been there, done that, and has the souvenirs to prove it. For Spring 2004, the designer turned her attention to the stiffest fashion challenge of the day: how to make feminine, happily nostalgic clothes without rehashing the clichés of vintage? “It was about tourism and craftsmanship, many things,” she said of a show that revisited the optimistic fifties to bring back a full set of densely packed suitcases. Out tumbled every possible variation on the classic touring wardrobe: circle skirts printed with illustrated Mediterranean scenes, shirtwaists and Capri pants, sundresses and bathing suits, button-through skirts and lovely evening frocks, silk madras bras and little tulle full-skirted dance dresses. What set the collection apart were the subtle twists, like the way Prada will gently mess up fabric with dip-dye and tie-dye, turn seams inside out, or leave edges raw. Something in the proportion of her neat little tops, belted slightly above the waist, to the fullness and length of her skirts, to the height of her T-strap shoes or pumps, inexplicably excuses the silhouette from the frumpiness of the literal fifties line. Meanwhile, students of Pradaology will note that her sight-seeing tour also revisits some favorite landmarks of her own career: the silk pleated goddess dresses, fur tippets...
