This is a gorgeous 1950s1960s deadstock twin set in a gorgeous, vibrant cherry red shade, complete with its original vintage paper hangtag!
This beautiful matching ensemble consists of a classic short-sleeved sweater and a coordinating long-sleeved cardigan, both featuring wonderfully elegant silhouettes that perfectly capture the sophisticated charm of mid-century knitwear.
The short-sleeved sweater features a high round neckline, gently shaped shoulders and a flattering fitted silhouette, finished with delicate ribbed detailing at the neckline and hem. A matching zipper at the back of the neck provides a neat fastening.
The coordinating cardigan features a lovely high neckline, long sleeves and a row of matching red buttons down the front, creating a beautifully polished and harmonious look.
Crafted from 100% Tergal polyester, a popular vintage synthetic fibre, the finely knitted fabric has a beautifully smooth texture, a lovely drape and a vibrant, rich colour.
A particularly special detail is the original Tergal paper hangtag, still attached to the cardigan, confirming the fabric composition and preserving a charming piece of 1960s textile history.
A gorgeous example of deadstock 1960s knitwear, combining timeless elegance, striking colour and beautiful vintage details.
