Vintage 1970's sunshine yellow pussy bow capelet
I designed and pattern cut this shape a few years ago and when sorting through my archives I came across it and just knew it would work really well in the range.
Capes are very special garments, they really are something out of a fairy tale, with this I wanted to create a shape that had all the romance but would also be practical and have a fashion edge so it could be worn back with other items in your wardrobe, hence it is fully sleeved so easy to wear and comes with a pussy bow tie to finish.
This piece has been created from the most joyful of vintage bedspreads. In sunshine yellow and ivory this piece this piece dates back to the 1970’s.
The intricate geometric floral and star jacquards are just delightful, perfect for dancing around a field this summer !
Fit
This piece is designed to be dual sized and will best fit a UK 6-22, this piece is more fitted on the underarm and shoulder point than my usual block so although there is plenty of swish on the hem she does appear less oversized than my jacket block.
Our Model Nargis is a UK size 12 for reference.
