A piece to behold, this original 1960's ivory Lilli Diamond ensemble composed of a cropped blouse and matching high rise genie trousers, edged with strands of silver claw set rhinestones and cream fringing , is the perfect addition to your cocktail wardrobe.

The back of the blouse features silver and rhinestone embellished button fastenings along the centre.
The matching high-rise genie trousers, boast a fitted waistline, which draws together and fastens with a zip and hook and eye along the centre back.

Finished with double silver claw set rhinestone strands and a border of cream fringing, the cuffs draw in with internal hook and eyes. This set is lined in ivory rayon along the trousers and blouse.

Condition: This set is in near perfect vintage condition. Some very gentle fraying to some of the cream fringing details. Gentle and light yellowing along the seams of the armholes. Two small pin sized age marks concealed within the gathered pleats of the right hand side hemline of the trousers. A very faint area of slight colour variation along the front right hand side of the blouse below the bust-line. These minor details are in no way apparent when the set is being worn, and only apparent upon very close inspection. Please refer to the photographs as they form part of the condition report.
This set is in fair vintage condition but is too fabulous to leave behind. Although the age marks are apparent, we feel like the right home may be found for this piece. This set has been priced accordingly.
