Suave mauve | Vintage Suede leather patches 1960s 1970s stitched patchwork collar dress
Designer vintage dress? We imagine this on the cover page of the most luxurious Paris magazines in the 1930s/40s. Together with white gloves, a pillbox hat and expensive silk stockings.
It simply screams high-end, luxury, vintage. In particular the suede-patchwork and hand-stitched/crocheted patches at the collar and shoulders. So well-lined, it would fit the wearer like a glove.
An elegant A-line silhouette with gorgeous little buttons at the sleeves and down the front. It takes a real lady to carry this beauty off.
Pinned?: No. But it was belted to show how it wears when worn with one.
