1970s Ann Buck Patchwork Suede and Leather Jumpsuit

This is an extraordinary piece of original vintage leather work by under the radar British boutique designer Ann Buck. The jumpsuit is primarily composed of oxblood cured leather with striking embellished leather work on the torso and sleeves. The assortment of both cured and suede leather work is made up in complementary designs of alternating embroidered, precious metallic painted and embossed patches. The main element is purple with an overprinted silver diamond pattern which incorporates; the collar, either side of the zip, the lower back and the chevron patches on the arms. There is a central front zip and both the ankles and cuffs have popper fastenings for access. The jumpsuit is fully lined in a quality black and red polka dot fabric which feels like silk.

The jumpsuit presents very well; it is in very good vintage condition, verging on excellent for leatherwork. There are only gentle signs of use from natural wear and these do not detract. It has dry cleaned beautifully with the leather still retaining its suppleness. Size wise, this will be suitable for up to UK size 10 or US size 6. Our model is a UK 8-10 or US 4-6.
