Fabulous Vintage 60's (or possibly early 70's) maxi skirt and top set - the original
co-ord. Fully lined and finished beautifully, this piece is just such wonderful quality, hand tailored by Marlborough Fashions for David Jones. I can imagine this being worn for a day at the races - it's so on trend with such sharp lines and bold colour blocking, completely timeless. The wrap around skirt is shaped at the front and the cross over top has covered buttons.
A rare and collectible piece of Australian fashion history.
Good vintage condition, a few small pin holes on back not seen when worn.

Sizing info:Vintage and Handmade items are provided with estimated sizes as some people prefer a tighter fit and some more relaxed. Vintage sizes vary so much so a size 12 may be more like a modern size 6 or could also be oversize and fit like a 16. Measure a similar style of garment in your wardrobe to see how this compares.
