Vintage 1970s Floral Panne Velvet Palazzo Pant Jumpsuit – Psychedelic Print, Handmade, Fitted Silhouette
This vintage 1970s jumpsuit is a striking example of late psychedelic-era design, rendered in a brightly coloured floral and foliate print on panne velvet. The pattern combines tones of orangey red, purple, gold, copper, and cobalt against a black ground, creating an unmistakably period look.
The palazzo pant jumpsuit features a fitted bodice with a front zipper closure, long sleeves with elasticized cuffs, and a wide leg. The cut follows the natural line of the body, giving it a sleek silhouette typical of the era. The panne velvet fabric adds sheen and depth, enhancing the movement of the print under light.
There are no maker’s labels present, and the construction suggests it was likely seamstress made.
