More about this Item

Talk about a time capsule! This incredible vintage find is brand new with its original store tags attached, having waited patiently since the late 1970s to be worn. Produced by Talbott (a division of U.S. Industries), this top represents the high-quality American knitwear manufacturing that defined the era.

The fabric is a “Dacron” polyester with a distinct bouclé or terry-cloth texture, giving it that soft, nubby feel that is highly sought after in vintage resort wear. The color is a sophisticated dusty rose (bordering on mauve or brick), accented by sporty white stripes at the hem. It features a charming keyhole neckline with a self-tie bow, raglan short sleeves, and a flattering semi-fitted cut.

Because this item is true Deadstock, it retains its crisp, unworn shape. It still bears the original price tag of $36.00—a luxury price point for the time! Whether you are styling it for a tennis-core look or just love the tactile feel of vintage knits, this piece is a rare gem.

Measurements:

  • Bust: 35 inches (Doubled from 17.5″ pit-to-pit)

  • Length: 23 inches

  • Label Size: Vintage 36

  • Modern Size Estimate: Fits like a modern Small.

Condition: New With Tags (Deadstock). This item is unworn with original hangtags and union labels attached. Please note: The main neck label is loose on one side (hanging by a stitch), and there is a documented thread pull near the shoulder.
