1960s Unknown Label Embellished Brocade Top – Size 0/2

Product Description: 

This rare 1960s cropped brocade top delivers maximalist glamour with serious editorial punch. Likely repurposed from the bodice of a full-length gown, the structure remains strong and intentionally tailored, now reborn as a statement piece for contemporary styling.

Heavily embellished in ruby red, jet black, and gold threading with dimensional florals and rhinestone accents, this piece features a graphic center panel, structured silhouette, and a classic mod-era back zipper closure. The rich textile and high-contrast trim channel vintage couture energy with a dramatic edge.

Pairs beautifully with a coordinating embellished skirt or high-waisted trousers. Let your accessories set the tone — whether gallery opening or rooftop cocktail hour, this one turns heads.

Construction & Materials:

• 1960s metallic brocade (likely synthetic blend with metallic thread)
  
• Hand-sewn glass and sequin embellishments
  
• Cropped silhouette with full lining
  
• Back zipper closure
  
• No stretch
  

Condition:
Very good vintage condition. Minor signs of age to embroidery and beadwork upon close inspection. Some fraying to select threads and light fabric wear at high-friction areas, all consistent with age. Please see detail images for reference. Priced accordingly.

Styling Tips:

• Pair with a cigarette pant or longline skirt for editorial contrast
  
• Add gold hoops and a sleek heel for a dinner party-ready fit
  
• Layer under a structured blazer to modernize the drama
