70s Red Chiffon Evening Pants Beads & Sequins Women's Vintage Medium VFG
These amazing vintage pants are 70s to possibly early 80s. I think of them as Liza Minnelli pants, or possibly Judy Garland pants With the partially elasticized waist, they should keep you reasonably comfortable, while looking fabulous. They even have side seam inset pockets. They are heavy by the way - the package will weigh just under 2 pounds.

FABRIC/COLORS: The outer fabric is red chiffon, extensively embellished with gold and silver beads of various sizes and shapes along with silver sequins. The pants are fully lined in a red acetate type fabric, which is also used for the elasticized waistband.
TAGS: No tags
CLOSURES: There is a front placket with nylon zipper, with a metal hook & bar to secure the waist.
CONDITION: The beadwork is almost completely intact . The elastic inside the waistband had lost its oomph. Since it was stitched to the rear fabric waistband, I opened the seams at either end and threaded through a pair of 3/8" elastic above and below the center stitching, then sewed the ends down by hand - see closeups from the inside.
I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
