1950s 1960s Vintage Red and Black Houndstooth Large Pocket Skirt - Xs to Sm
This classic color combination - red and black- takes on a whole new meaning when its executed with a fun houndstooth pattern in a bold maxi skirt with large pockets! The garment is cozy, elegant, and functional! The fabric feels like wool and there is no give. Additionally there is no lining (except for the pockets) so you may want to wear a slip underneath, or leggings for added warmth! The garment closes at the side with small hook and eye closures only. There is only a portion left of a lot/ size tag inside one of the pockets. Based upon material and construction the piece is probably from the late 50s or possibly even early 60s. It would best fit a modern Extra Small or Small. The Model is modern size 4/6 for reference.

Hips: about 38 inches (there is a bit of gathering though).

Good vintage condition - Overall wear to piece. A few very slight pulls to the weave here and there. One small hole found near hem. You will notice the interior has some more fraying to the extra fabric in the seam allotment areas. This is not noticeable from outside and should not affect wear. Some flattening in areas at the waist from long term storage with clasp hanger.
All measurements are approximate as they are taken flat - for garments specifically this means where applicable (bust, waist, hips) has been doubled unless stated otherwise. If you are uncertain about fit and/or need more measurements please ask! If it is provided in the listing, models and/or dress form sizes are used as a point of reference only. Please remember that all bodies are different so always defer to the measurements I provide and check them against your own, preferably on a similar style garment.
