Vintage 1970s folk peasant skirt

This wrap-around vintage folk peasant skirt from the 1970s has the most vivid red tone that is beautifully contrasted with white scalloped edging and hand-embroidered floral detail on the front. Throw on a head scarf and grab a wicker basket for true vintage chic – just like Gwyneth Paltrow’s character in The Talented Mr Ripley! There’s no labels within this garment. Noted flaws: I can see two minor stains on the fabric that are not really noticeable, especially with the way the skirt drapes and folds.

Era: 1970s
Label: Unknown
Material: Feels like cotton
There is some flexibility with sizing, given that this is a wrap-around skirt. I estimate it would fit an Australian size 6, 8, 10 or 12.

Skirt length, from waistband to hemline: 74cm (29 inches)

Bust: 82cm (32.5 inches)
Waist: 66cm (26 inches)
