Amazing Vintage Suits Part 2!

SO. This is going to be a bit of a continuation of my previous post filled with some vintage suits from our costume stock.  These are from day 2!

1960s girls suit

Cutest thing ever.  Super teeny, double breasted.  I'm in love with the little notches at the hem of the jacket.

1940s women's suit with contrast yoke, cuffs, and pocket.

OK. So. There was much debate about this sweet little suit in the shop. Some were less excited about the yoke.  I, for one, think it's completely adorable.  And with FANTASTIC shaping.

1940s  plaid suit

 Oh. My. God. The plaid matching on this one is so beautifully done.  Just unreal.  Check out the collar/lapel joint.  Beautiful!

And now....

Whoa.  1960s embroidered suit.

 This guy is AMAZING.  Hilarious, but amazing.  The jacket is totally covered, front and back, with this insane raffia (?) embroidery.  It's the same sort of embroidery that you see on straw beach bags.  This thing is incredible.  And crunchy (but not brittle, surprisingly).  Here are some closer and detail shots....

This one is a really lovely mauve dress suit.  I used this in a show last year with a little black velvet belt and hat.

I love the little black velvet bows and rhinestone buckles.  

Now that we've got lots of stuff to actually do, I'm not sure how much time I'll be spending in stock -- so this is the last post of this sort for a while...sad face.
