Just like the one shown yesterday, I love this style. It’s so comfy and at-home, but still with classic good looks and wonderful fabric. That’s something that can almost always be depended on with true vintage clothing.
In this case, I’m in love with the colors and the soft material. What could be more comfortable in the warm weather to come? Easy to wear and the tie waist makes the fit so custom-perfect every time . . . . . . . ..

A FUN SOUVENIR SWEATER FROM LAS VEGAS – 1960’S – 1970’S.
A FUN TRUE VINTAGE SOUVENIR SWEATER FROM 1960’S LAS VEGAS
Someone was tempted to remember their mid-century trip-of-a-lifetime to Las Vegas with a splashy embroidered sweater, before the time of T-shirts being worn every day and taking over as souvenirs of our vacations. Same idea, different era. What happened in Vegas didn’t always stay there.
The most fun fashions have usually fallen somewhere along the spectrum of bad taste, and this one is no exception – how could you not love it?! Like almost all souvenir items, it’s not of exceptional quality – but it still has lasted 50 years in good condition. You won’t find anything exactly like it now.
Knit of acrylic yarn, for purely casual wear – our adventurous gambler maybe wore it to her weekly card games or just to advertise her trip to an “exotic” destination. Going to Vegas used to be a much bigger deal than it is today. After all, it was Mafia territory, full of high rollers and shady ladies. Some things never change . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
