HOT ! 1960s Pucci Turquoise Printed Leggings

Dating to the late 1960s, these Pucci leggings are as vibrant as the day they were made. In eye-catching turquoise blue with that signature psychedelic Pucci print with florals in shades of purple, blue and green running down the legs - note the ‘Emilio’ signature printed among the florals. They have a high-waist cut and panelled construction. The original blue-and-white label reads ‘Emilio Pucci Florence Italy’ and ‘100% Helanca’ - an Italian stretch fabric with a nylon base. A good fit for up to a UK 8-10 or US 4-6. Our model is a UK 6 US 0-2 and 5\'11\" and these were a good fit on her due to the stretch in the fabric. We\'ve also had a UK 8-10 US 4-6 try these on and they looked great on her too. 

Excellent vintage condition and a rare survivor from the period; very fresh looking. We have another similar pair in one of our other listings.Highly collectible due to their adaptable and wearable nature - try layering them under a sheer gown or just add your favourite oversized vintage shirt.
