Random Find -Vintage Cavalli Suede Jumpsuit

[kimberlyfaye]

Visited before and taken some advice but never had anything worth posting to bother you all with, but now I do so here it goes

This Cavalli Leather Jumpsuit found me - it's new w/ tags and in great shape. Has anyone ever seen a piece like this or know the time it came into the world? I love it and can't believe I found it for $12!

Thx!

I'm taking a random stab at late 70s or early 80s. Am really interested to see what the experts say on this one! Its great, I really love it!

I would say 70s on this as I find it has a very disco look to the cut of the jumpsuit. Great find! If you could show the actual label too that would of help.

I'd say 80's due to the shape of the pants - pleated top and tapered. 70's would have been more palazzo, wouldn't it? The applique leaves are gorgeous!

All that heavy pleating and gathering into a waistband begins in the late 70s and I can't imagine anything this earthy very far into in the 80s -- I would guess late 70s.

Love it a lot! I sold this Roberto Cavalli skirt, with stencilled, pearlized leather and suede appliques, which I felt was from somewhere in the 80's.

This was the leather label:

Would love to see the label on yours, a really great find!

Wow--great jumpsuit! I think early 80s on this. Last time I went to Vegas with my ex-husband, I bought a jumpsuit in a high-end boutique with very similar lines--same, as Jonathan notes, waistline, pleats & gathers--and the exact same shape of the leg. That would have been in '83, I think, possibly '84, but no later than that. Mine wasn't as nice as yours, though!!!!!

What a fantastic find at $12!!! Yikes! It looks like a 70's disco jumpsuit to me. Love the applique leaves - so unusual. I've never seen anything quite like it. Congratulations! :sunshine:

What an amazing piece for early fall! Those applique leaves are just wonderful...

And for only $12! Fabulous score!
