70s Vintage Palazzo Pants Air Brushed Stretchy Black Jersey High Waisted VFG
These vintage pants probably date to the 1970s, and are a fun combination of practical and artsy. The practical part is the black color and the comfortable pull on without zippers or buttons. The artsy part is the airbrush-style application of curving patterns in soft colors, and also the wide palazzo pantlegs.

FABRIC/COLORS: A light weight jersey knit, probably poly. If there is spandex too, it isn't much - these don't have the typical stretch of modern poly/spandex blends. The pants are black, with soft shades of purple, dark teal, and grayish blue.
TAGS: The only tag is one sewn into the inner waistband that says "front"
CLOSURES: N/A, these pull on.
CONDITION: No stains, holes, tears or other issues noted.
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.
