1960s Midnight Paillette Sequin Wool Hat and Sleeveless Sweater Set

About the Item

This vintage wool sweater shimmers and steals through the dark of nightlife. Made with a 100% navy wool knit base, both sweater and hat feature coin size paillettes individually attached with black seed bead links. The sleeveless sweater has a scoop neckline that dips down to a v at center back. A handset metal zipper runs the entire length at center back, with the sweater falling to hip length. Fully lined in black satin, the sweater feels fabulous as the weight of the sequins create luxurious drape. The knit pillbox hat, which sits high on the head, is also covered in iridescent paillette sequins shining in a complement of gray, blue, green, and purple shades. The set brings back the go-go 60s, recalling the many moods of designers like Paco Rabanne and Pierre Cardin who eagerly explored clothing design through materiality and texture. Match these up with slim tuxedo pants, a svelte little skirt, or anything you choose. Size estimate: S/M Measurements: Bust: 36 inches Waist: 32 inches Length: 21.5 inches Hat: 21 inch circumference This 1960s-era sweater and hat set is in excellent condition, with “Maxime Original Made in Hong Kong” label still intact.

The sleeveless sweater has a scoop neckline that dips down to a v at center back. A handset metal zipper runs the entire length at center back, with the sweater falling to hip length.

  • 1950s Balenciaga Haute Couture Black Velvet Jewel Toque Hat
    By Balenciaga
    Located in Boca Raton, FL
    Born in Spain in 1895, Cristóbal Balenciaga is renowned as one of the masters of haute couture. Drawing from strikingly decorative Spanish cultural influence, Balenciaga’s designs up until the mid- to late-twentieth century incorporated highly detailed beadwork, and hours or intricate embroidery. While mimicking the evolution of his design aesthetic, the millenary works created by the House of Balenciaga were not in fact conceptions of the designer himself, but designed by expert milliners Wladzio d'Attainville, and Ramón Esparza. Nonetheless, the hats produced compliment the couturier’s lavish aesthetic. This 1950s toque hat...
