Description:

Item: 1970s crew neck jumper in a wool blend, deadstock condition, with original retail tag still attached. Lemon yellow throughout, knitted in a tonal textured stitch pattern — alternating blocks of knit and purl creating a subtle geometric surface across the body and sleeves. Small ribbed crew neck, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a relaxed, generously cut fit with slightly bloused sleeves.

Era: 1970s

Brand: —

Condition: Deadstock - unworn and unused, original retail tag present.

Provenance Note: The tonal textured knit — using stitch variation rather than colour to create surface interest — is a quietly considered approach to knitwear design, the pattern only fully revealing itself as the fabric catches the light. In lemon yellow the effect is particularly fresh, the geometric block patterning reading as a soft relief across the surface. The bloused sleeve is a well-proportioned detail for the period, adding volume at the shoulder without overwhelming the otherwise clean silhouette. In deadstock condition with its original tag, this is exactly as it left the shop floor.

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.
