1970s | Black and Blue Floral Print Palazzo Trousers - w32

Description:

Item: High waist palazzo trousers in a scattered floral print of bold teal blue flowers on a black ground. Clean, graphic flower forms with white centre detail arranged across the cloth. Side zip fastening. Extremely wide, full-cut leg in lightweight polyester that drapes and moves like a skirt.

Era: 1970s

Brand: —

Condition: Very good vintage condition, with light wear consistent with age and use.

Provenance Note: The floral palazzo trouser is a softer take on the wide-leg silhouette that the 1970s produced so well, the scattered flower print giving it a lightness that the more geometric versions of the format don't have. The teal blue on black is a strong, high-contrast combination that keeps the print bold without being heavy, and the full-cut leg means the flowers move across the cloth as the trousers move. A generous, confident piece that earns the palazzo format completely.

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, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down to allow for structure, lining, and bulk.

Buying true vintage clothing:

When buying true vintage clothing, you are buying a piece of clothing as an investment. We believe most of our true vintage items will hold or increase in value in years to come. We hope you will cherish your purchase.
