80s Vintage Norma Kamali 40s Style Swing Skirt Jumper S

$ 39.95

Whimsical 40s swing style by a great American designer! Wide waist yoke that is oval shaped in front - the top part folds down over the rest of the waist and the bottom part forms a curving waistline, very flattering! Long straps are attached in back and fasten near the sideseams in front with small buttons and three buttonhole options. The flaring seven gored skirt moves like a dream. Large standout pockets that wrap around the sides add a quirky accent.

Size: Labeled size 8, but vintage sizes run small

No fabric content tag, but there is a tag that says dry clean only. The fabric is most likely rayon, in a light to medium weight, with a very slight sheen to the surface. The print is tiny geometric vee shapes in cream against a black background.

Closures

Invisible nylon zipper in back

Condition

I found a cluster of 3 or 4 pinholes on the lower left side of the skirt. Also, some minor seam stress below the back zipper - see close-up photo. Not noticeable unless you look closely, given the nature of the fabric and the print. I put white paper underneath for the photo, and it still is difficult to see.
