1970s | Wool Blend Skirt | Chevron Stripe - w30

Description:

Item:
Original 1970s wool blend skirt with a bold chevron stripe layout in rich earthy tones. Cut in an A-line shape with a long, easy drape through the body, letting the directional pattern do most of the work. A strong 70s piece with plenty of movement and visual texture.

Era:
1970s

Condition:
Very good vintage condition. Presents well overall with light, honest wear consistent with age and use. The skirt keeps a very good shape and the pattern remains clear and striking.

Provenance Note:
This is a very satisfying 1970s skirt because the fabric and cut are working together properly. The chevron layout gives it rhythm and movement, while the wool blend adds the right amount of body and texture. It has that warm, grounded palette people always respond to in good 70s pieces, and the long A-line shape gives it a very easy kind of elegance.

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.
