1960s | Two Piece Waistcoat And Skirt Set | Brown Check - 8

Description:

Item: Original 1960s two piece set in a rich brown check, made up of a sleeveless button-front waistcoat and matching skirt. The waistcoat features a rounded collar, multiple flap pockets and a neatly tailored fit through the body, while the matching skirt keeps the look cohesive and sharply period. The cut is clean and structured with that unmistakable late 1960s mod-to-country crossover feel, giving the set real charm worn together or split apart.

Era: 1960s

Condition: Very good vintage condition. Presents well with strong structure, clean pattern and light, honest wear in keeping with age. A smart, wearable set with plenty of life and great overall visual appeal.

Provenance Note: Two piece sets like this are exactly the sort of vintage people remember and rarely find intact. The matching waistcoat and skirt give it real impact, while the checked fabric and pocket-heavy tailoring keep it grounded in that brilliant 1960s British look. A very sellable set with loads of styling potential, whether worn together for full effect or separated into two strong standalone pieces.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing

We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation; however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.

Sizing Notes:

Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with the bust measurement, then check length. Vintage sizing runs small and cuts vary significantly from modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.

Our modern sizing estimates are based on bust measurements using the following sizing scale:

UK 6 (30–31")

UK 8 (32–33")

UK 10 (34–35")

UK 12 (36–37")

UK 14 (38–39")

UK 16 (40–41")

UK 18 (42–43")

UK 20 (44–45")

For jackets, knitwear, sweaters, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down to allow for structure, lining, bulk.or layering.
