Archival Lanvin Boutique Candy-Stripe Raw Cotton Blend Cropped Blouse S M – c. 1980s
Archival Lanvin Boutique Candy-Stripe Raw Cotton Blend Cropped Blouse S M – c. 1980s
### THE VAULT REPORT
A beautifully architectural archival artifact from the Lanvin Boutique line (circa late 1980s / early 1990s). This luxury blouse features a vibrant, high-saturation fuchsia body juxtaposed against crisp pink-and-white candy-stripe accents running along the front button placket, wide retro under-collar, and oversized upturned cuffs.
The silhouette is defined by its cropped, boxy proportions and precise volume gathers at the front shoulder yokes and rear panels, delivering a sophisticated post-modernist silhouette.
### TEXTILE & HARDWARE ARCHITECTURAL REPORT
Crafted in Europe from an ultra-premium, heavyweight raw cotton displaying a highly structured, heavy crepe slub canvas weave. The textile is characterized by its signature organic irregularities and horizontal slub bars inherent to premium natural raw fibers. This high-density composition gives the blouse a distinct tactile feel, a semi-matte luxury luster under studio lighting, and a crisp, rigid drape that holds its voluminous shape perfectly.
The front closure features genuine, premium four-hole Mother-of-Pearl (Perlmutt) buttons cross-stitched onto a multi-directional woven candy-stripe placket with high-density finished buttonholes—a testament to traditional French luxury ready-to-wear construction codes.
### CONDITION REPORT
Excellent vintage condition. The raw silk blend fabric maintains superb color saturation with no bleeding or fiber degradation. Features the authentic woven "LANVIN" minimalist signature branding tag intact at the shoulder yoke seam line and immaculate natural pearl buttons.
