About the Item

This two-piece ensemble by Laurél was designed in the early 1990s. Laurél was founded in Germany in 1978 as a diffusion line of Escada, created by Margaretha and Wolfgang Ley. Crafted from exceptionally soft cotton denim, the jacket features a black and white check print with a cinched elasticated waist creating a gentle peplum, and broad, boxy shoulders structured with large shoulder pads. It fastens at the front with matte black plastic buttons, mirrored on the two flap breast pockets. The back reveals a striking contrast: an exuberant rainbow-hued abstract print of masks and geometric shapes cascading down the centre panel. It is fully lined in white satin. The coordinating mini skirt is patterned entirely with the bold print that appears on the jacket’s back, cut in a fitted pencil silhouette and finished with a back slit for ease of movement. It is lined in white satin and fastening at the rear with a concealed white zip and one black button. This ensemble is in excellent vintage condition. It is labelled 100% Cotton and an EU size 40 but please check our measurements below as the skirt runs smaller. The fabric has no stretch. Our model's sizes are: Bust: 33" (84cm), Waist: 26" (66cm), Hips: 34" (86cm) and Height: 5' 7" (170cm). She's a size UK 6, US 2 and the jacket was oversized on her. The skirt will fit modern sizes up to a UK 8-10 or US 4-6 and the jacket will accommodate up to a UK 14 or US 10; however; the fit is designed to be oversized. MEASUREMENTS JACKET BUST - 46 in.
