Skirt and vest things were seen a lot in the late 1970’s. Although this style is classic and turns up regularly, seems as though it had a trend moment at that time. I picked this one up because of it’s quality and pedigree.

Made by Mr. Leonard, a well-known (though now re-owned or out of business) women’s mid-priced clothing maker in Canada. They made a variety of ladies fashions of very good quality and I have run across the label several times.

I admit, it’s not terribly exciting but extremely well-made; 100% cotton, fully-lined vest, comfortable and easy to wear. A clue worth collecting, but subject to the closet-cleaning. See it on eBay. . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .
