1970s | TGL | Deadstock | Cotton Two Piece Set - 10 / W24

Description:

Item: Original TGL two piece set in cotton, comprising a matching blouse and skirt in a bold brown and beige graphic print. The top is cut with a soft ruffled neckline, tie front detail and an easy, lightly bloused shape, while the matching skirt keeps the set cohesive with the same strong linear and circular pattern throughout. A very good 1970s coordinate, with the full look already built in and plenty of impact from the print alone.

Era: 1970s

Brand: TGL

Condition: Deadstock vintage condition. Unworn old stock, retaining a crisp, fresh appearance with strong colour and clean overall presentation. A rare survivor in this state.

Provenance Note: Good 1970s two piece sets always have a bit more presence than separates because they carry the full period look exactly as intended. This one works especially well because the print is so assured, graphic, earthy and unmistakably of its decade, while the tied blouse and matching skirt keep the silhouette easy rather than overworked. Deadstock examples are increasingly hard to find, particularly in coordinated sets, and that untouched condition gives this one extra appeal for anyone who wants a 1970s outfit with real integrity rather than just a nod to the era.

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.
