More about this Item
If you love the “70s Art Teacher” aesthetic, this shirt is your holy grail. Produced by the classic American label Cos Cob, this button-down perfectly captures the adventurous spirit of 1970s fashion.
The design starts with a classic preppy green and yellow plaid, but things get groovy with a massive, ornate paisley overlay printed across the chest and upper back. It almost looks like a tapestry or bandana print fused with a lumberjack shirt. It features a sharp, period-correct dagger collar (disco collar) and darted tailoring for a flattering fit.
Condition Report: She is in Great Vintage Condition with plenty of life left.
The Fabric: The colors are bright and the 50/50 poly-cotton blend is crisp.
The Flaws: There is some minor seam pulling/stress at the shoulder seams (pictured), likely from a previous owner moving their arms enthusiastically. It is stable and not a hole, just a sign of its vintage journey.
Sizing: The vintage tag reads Size 9/10, but do not be fooled! Vintage sizing is smaller than modern sizing. This fits like a modern Small to Medium (US 4-6). See measurements below.
Measurements (Flat):
Bust: 36 inches (18″ pit to pit)
