Description

1980s Travilla Leopard Print Sequined Skirt Suit – Size 12

Product Description:

Vintage power dressing never looked this unapologetic. This rare 1980s leopard print skirt suit by legendary designer Travilla is pure statement dressing with just the right amount of Studio 54 energy.

The jacket features puffed sleeves, strong shoulders, and an elongated silhouette with bold sequin paneling scattered throughout the animal print. Fully lined with a single-button closure, it’s tailored without being restrictive. The coordinating skirt is high-waisted and structured, finishing just above the knee with a classic hemline. The fabric is a drapey synthetic blend with a subtle sheen—lightweight and breathable, yet substantial enough to hold shape. Fully lined. Buttons are plastic.

About the Designer:
William Travilla (1920–1990) was a costume designer turned fashion powerhouse, best known for dressing Marilyn Monroe, including the iconic white dress from The Seven Year Itch. A multi-award-winning Hollywood figure, Travilla brought his dramatic flair to the ready-to-wear world in the 1980s, blending screen-worthy glamour with wearable silhouettes. His namesake line became a staple among women seeking elevated statement pieces.

This two-piece set is ideal for cocktail parties, red carpet events, and editorials—or break it up for street styling. Throw the jacket over leather pants, or wear the skirt with a vintage tee and boots for unexpected balance.

I finally walked in after walking by for years when I heard they were in need for volunteers for their donation drive. I'm ashamed I haven't found this store before. The owner is fantastic, she hopped out of a hospital bed and straight to setting up this push to help people. The store, as it's known, on the fourth floor feels like you are thriving with some of the most upbeat staff to aid you find everything you need for woman's clothing, toiletries, and undergarments. On the second is where you can find an almost equal amount of men's, rare to have this ratio in any department store. Kids all the way down to infants, with diapers, and toys. Here you can see volunteers going from room to room sorting through, sizing, and cleaning up donations to stock both floors. Snacks, water, non-perishable food, and a welcome environment has made this a far distinction from digging through a pile of T-shirts on a folding table. My time volunteering here has been exhausting in the best way, the tiredness that comes with knowing you've done good, that your work and presence are valued. I'll continue to be here everyday I can until Melynda gets tired of me saying, "Happy ___day!" We're still here!

An absolute gem of a boutique, with a constant stream of unique vintage pieces! I was able to get the perfect dress, pumps, handbag, and hat for a formal tea at very short notice. The store is easy to access in the second floor of a fashion design building. The owner is a talented costume designer with a wealth of experience from film and more. Whether you go in with a decade-specific goal in mind, or are just looking for a special treasure, you will surely find something magical!!!

Where shall I begin? My cuz and I went because we lost everything in the fire! Trent greeted us, Carmen helped me snd Allison my cuz. They treated us like Gold! We both felt very special! What a gem of a place! Everything I took home fit. The clothes were fabulous but Trent was so cool and cute, Carmen was so very helpful going out if her way for me and Allison helped my cousin hand pick his new wardrobe and not to mention she was gorgeous to boot! Thank you Quirk, Thanks for going above and beyond and for restoring my faith in humanity! Margo and Raul

I had a really good experience at Quirk. Its located in DTLA which is known to give you headaches with parking. Luckily there were several fairly priced garage options on the same block. The shop is located on the second floor of this cool, early 20th century style building. I love vintage buildings so I was hyped before I even stepped into Quirk. But once inside I was really digging the vibes. They have a really selection of vintage, modern clothes for women and men. With assistance of the curator, Melynda, I was able to grab a few items for an upcoming headshot session. I didn't have to break the bank as the items I purchased were from a $20 rack. I will def go again. I highly recommend checking it out.

Shop filled with vintage and new clothing curated by a pro at helping you look good. Easy to access, clean and neat and very cool. If you don't know how cool Los Angeles is, stop by here and get an introduction and some clothes and accessories.

Great vintage shop in Downtown! With all the new vintage stores popping up around LA these days, Quirk really stands out with having unique, high quality items that are personally curated by the owner, Melynda, who is also a professional stylist and costume designer. Most vintage shops these days are just filled with XXL 80s/90s shirts, and overpriced jeans. Quirk has one-of-a-kind items that have made me a return customer. Most recent purchases were a 1970s YSL handbag and kimono jacket that always get me compliments when I wear them out.

Found an absolute gem of a Hawaiian shirt for my rehearsal dinner. Just head upstairs, go back in time, and enjoy yourself. Love this place and Melynda!!

This is such a fabulous find! A true gem tucked away in DTLA!! I went looking for vintage men’s items to match a watch I was gifted, and Melynda helped me pick out the most beautiful suit. She’s amazing too - she has the most fun and quirky style, but also donates clothes to victims of the wildfires. She gave me a tour of “The People’s Free Boutique” and it’s laid out to make those who have lost everything feel like they are really shopping for high-end items rather than getting things for free. I will be back to support Quirk Vintage again!!
