Alpine Fashions Indigo Suede Leather Coat NZ

$349.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Crafted from supple suede leather in a rich indigo tone, this exceptional Alpine Fashions coat is the epitome of glamourous mid century dressing. Hand cut and tailored in Christchurch, New Zealand, the silhouette is softly sculpted through the waist before falling into an elegant longline shape that moves beautifully with the body. The oversized curved collar framing and covered leather buttons create a distinctly feminine architectural detail, while the velvety nap catches light in shifting shades of midnight blue and violet. A true heirloom quality outerwear piece, its construction reflects an era of careful tailoring and enduring craftsmanship.

This silhouette offers beautiful balance through the shoulders and waist, creating gentle definition without feeling restrictive. The long clean lines elongate the frame while the softly flared lower shape allows ease through the hips and movement through layering. Style with tailored trousers, fine knits, or silk dresses for a refined winter look. Side pockets add practicality without interrupting the sleek profile.

Vintage Clothing - HANDBAG TEMPLATE 1970 (Copy) - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Handbag

Ink Blue Rose Print Vintage Jacket

$149.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Rendered in deep ink blue, this authentic vintage jacket carries a print that feels less manufactured and more like it could have been painted by hand. Loose, swirling roses sketched in cream and ivory scatter across the entire surface with the kind of expressive freedom that belonged to mid-century textile design at its most confident. The cotton blend fabric has a subtle woven texture throughout, giving the cloth a gentle dimension that elevates the print beyond the flat and the ordinary.

The silhouette is relaxed and boxy, cut to sit just below the waist with three-quarter length sleeves and a deep V-neckline that opens the front with quiet elegance. Two substantial tortoiseshell-effect buttons fasten the front with warmth and intention. The back is clean and unstructured, the rose print flowing uninterrupted from shoulder to hem. There is no fussiness here. Just good cloth, good cut and a print worth preserving.

This silhouette works beautifully on a range of body shapes, the relaxed boxy cut skimming rather than defining, creating an easy, elongated line through the torso. The deep blue background pairs effortlessly with black tailoring, white shirting or soft ivory separates. Worn buttoned over a white shirt and black skirt (as shown) for a complete look, or layered open over a slip dress for something more relaxed and personal. Either way, it brings quiet distinction to a modern wardrobe without complicating in return.

Vintage Clothing - Zampati Jacket - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Dresses

Carla Zampatti Gold Stripe Knit Jacket Cardigan

$199.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Bold yet quietly refined, this authentic Carla Zampatti jacket cardigan captures the relaxed glamour of Australian designer sports-luxe dressing across the late twentieth century. Crafted in a softly structured sweatshirting knit with luminous gold horizontal striping against deep navy, the silhouette falls in a long clean line with an open neckline and oversized statement buttons. The textured metallic weave catches the light beautifully, while the cotton blend construction gives the piece an effortless drape and comfortable weight. Designed with practical pockets and an elongated profile, it balances ease with unmistakable designer polish.

This silhouette layers beautifully over fine knits, slip dresses or tailored trousers, adding structure through the shoulders while skimming softly through the middle and hips. The vertical line created by the open neckline naturally elongates the frame, while the horizontal stripe placement lends a confident graphic edge without overwhelming proportions. Ideal for those who enjoy relaxed tailoring with presence, it transitions seamlessly between everyday wear and elevated evening styling.

HISTORY: The word chinoiserie /ʃɪnˈwɑːzəri/ comes from the French term Chinois which translates as Chinese or, after the Chinese taste (as in style). Chinoiseries means a Western or, European interpretation of an Asian style and may not an necessarily be of an actual Asian design. Painted Bird has an array of garments we consider 'chinoiserie' from a number of Asian countries but for purposes of website search - we offer as one collection. We believe they are all beautiful, unique and wearable art for the now. Fashion designers have repeated these designs over a variety of eras. Enjoy!

Vintage Clothing - Cobalt New York Coat - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Vintage Cobalt Blue Shantung-Style Car Coat

$229.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This cobalt blue car coat is the kind of rare find that makes you understand why mid-century outerwear is so collectable. The colour is bold and jewel-like, and the fabric has that beautiful slubbed texture that catches the light in a way modern cloth rarely does.

Cut in a classic swing-style silhouette with a clean open front, it sits easily through the shoulders and floats away from the body for comfort and polish. The pockets are genuinely useful (always a win), and the matching blue lining is the finishing touch that quietly tells you this was made properly.

It is a brilliant wardrobe investment because it does the hard work for you. Pop it on and suddenly a simple outfit looks considered, and an evening look feels elevated without needing anything fussy.

Style it over a soft lilac knit and wide-leg saffron trousers for a modern colour story, or try it with a deep berry slip dress and metallic heels for events. It also looks superb with a patterned scarf in chartreuse, teal, and warm spice tones, especially worn open so the movement shows.
