1960s Leo Narducci Mod Floral Dress/Jacket Set-38B

Beautiful!

Just listed a 1960s Leo Narducci dress suit and noticed there is no label in the resource. I got this info from Lasell University. Leo Narducci was born and raised in Brockton, Massachusetts, He grew up in the family garment business. After serving in the military, he graduated from Rhode...

Those embroidered boots are amazing!

Yep, 1970s

Love the detail on the dress. Does look early 50s to me.

Yes, the the serging is around the armhole. But the armhole is only 16" in circumference. So I don't think fabric was cutaway for pit damage. There is also serging on the waist seam.

Have a cute 1970s DVF wrap dress in floral rayon/cotton. But it is sleeveless. Anyone know if she designed sleeveless wrap dresses back then? Or was this maybe altered? I did find a photo of her wearing a a dress with the same print, but different style. So at least I have the decade right...

It is a narrow drawstring waistband.

Thanks for letting me know about the washing. Not sure if dry cleaning will take the marks out. Will just have to sell as is.

Is pajamas the correct term? Also, I've seen these all over the internet with different dates. Can anyone confirm the actual era these are from? And has anyone ever tried to clean these? This set has what looks like surface dirt.

I'm totally stumped. Even did a Google image search. Turned up nothing. Sorry!

Reminds me of a gypsy vest.

Wow! Good to know. Will have to start doing a better job of feeling hats I find!

Another question. How do you identify fur felt vs wool felt? I'm pretty clueless when it comes to hat construction and materials.

Very chic!

I like this hat. If I had somewhere to wear it I'd keep it! Has a bit of a 20s vibe to it. Barbara, thanks so much for that info. The beads are faceted plastic. Late 60s makes sense. And I was not aware of "Fur felt". Should I use that in the description?

It's black wool felt but feels like velveteen on the outside. Having trouble dating. Not sure what era that union label was used. Checked the label resource, but still can't narrow it down. Anyone know? 60s or 70s?

Stunning princess coat! You'll have no problem selling, even with the tiny holes.

I love flocked taffeta and it is so hard to find it in great condition. That flocking sure does wear off!

Wow! Very informative article. So well researched.

Ok. Took new photos. Hope this looks better. Had to use double stick tape to keep it from sliding off! Also, should I use terms such as cherries or berries for the decoration? Or both?

Will do!

Will have to rephotograph! Thanks.

Thanks, everyone, for all your helpful tips and advice!

I'm seeing later 60s.

Have this Hattie Carnegie hat that I'm not sure how to describe the style. Is it a pixie hat? Plus not sure on era. Anyone know?
