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.

The tailored fit suits those who enjoy structured dressing without heaviness, and the vibrant tartan pattern pairs effortlessly with denim, black tailoring or soft cream knitwear.

Vintage Clothing - Navy Wool-Blend Pinstripe Ruffle Wrap Skirt - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Skirt

Navy Wool-Blend Pinstripe Ruffle Wrap Skirt

$129.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This Lemonhead skirt is a deep navy with fine pale-yellow/gold pinstripes, it has that tailored, slightly graphic look that reads polished, and playful thanks to the layered ruffle detail at the hip.

The silhouette sits neatly at the waist and skims through the hips, with the ruffle adding movement and a bit of drama without bulk. The fabric feels like a practical wool blend with an easy-care finish, which makes it a brilliant piece for cooler months.

Try it with a yellow knit and chartreuse loafers. Or lean into pattern with a hot-pink polkadot tee and navy velvet blazer for contrast. For evening, add a satin camisole in emerald and a red lip, then finish with metallic heels. If you want a softer palette, try lilac knitwear with butter-yellow earrings.

This shape is great if you like waist definition with a clean line through the tummy and hips. It also works well if you are a bit fuller through the hips and thighs than the top half and want a skirt that skims rather than clings, with the ruffle detail drawing the eye in a flattering way.

Vintage Clothing - Baby Blue Beaded Cardi - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Skirt

Authentic Vintage Sophia Gift Centre Hong Kong Hand Beaded Lace Wool Cropped Cardigan | 1950s to 1960s Beaded Sequin Kowloon | Size 8 - 10 | Painted Bird Vintage NZ

$295.00 $189.00 Save $106.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

There are vintage pieces, and then there are works of skilled craftmanship seldom found in current garb. Tiny beads are hand-applied in sweeping curves and floral motifs across a lace background, punctuated by iridescent sequins that catch and scatter light with every movement. The base is a soft wool blend in pale baby blue, fully lined throughout in silk. Someone sat with this piece for a very long time, and the result is something that no longer exist in anything other than vintage and luxury fashion.

The cardigan is cropped, with three-quarter sleeves and a clean open front that fastens with original side hook and eye closures at the waist. The silhouette is neat and fitted without being structured, sitting just at the natural waist and working beautifully over a dress or a simple blouse underneath. Wear it over our Baby Blue Sheer Woven Spot Blouse with wide-leg trousers for a formal occasion. Layer it over a fitted black dress for an evening where you want the top half to do all the talking. This cardigan earns its place at a wedding, a significant birthday dinner, or simply worn on a Tuesday because life is short and beautiful things deserve to be worn!

Emerald Green Cotton Velvet Vintage A-line Swing Coat

$189.00 $179.00 Save $10.00

This shape is great if you like room through the bust, waist, and hips with a coat that drapes in a flattering line. It also works well if you carry more fullness through the middle or hips and prefer outerwear that gives you space and polish.

Vintage Clothing - Suede Seventies Sensation - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Seventies Sensation Clientell Suede Tan Tailored Jacket

$189.00 $149.00 Save $40.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This Clientell suede jacket is that warm toffee-caramel tone. It has a beautifully tailored vintage shape with a proper collar and lapel, a nipped-in waist, and a longer line that sits around the upper hip.

The devil is in the details: panelled seams for structure, flap pockets, and a clean front closure that keeps the look polished rather than fussy. It is lined, so it slides on easily over knitwear and dresses.

Try it over a cobalt knit and wide-leg denim adding a bright cheerful scarf. It also looks great over a turquoise printed dress with mustard heels, or a patterned midi for an upbeat, modern clash.

This shape is great if you like definition through the waist with a jacket that skims the hips rather than cutting across them. It also works well if you are a bit fuller through the bust and shoulders and want shaping through the body without feeling boxed in.

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!
