1970s true vintage 60s afghan waistcoat / boho / Lux Hippie / embroidered / Hippy / reversible

True vintage 1960s handmade Afghan Hippie waistcoat! 

This lovely hippy waistcoat features such vibrant hand embroidery with colours including bubblegum pink, sage green, mustard yellow, coral red and silver white on a black linen / cotton back ground fabric. 

This is one of three amazing handmade 1960s waist coats we have just listed in store! They all differ in colours so take a look...this example is actually reversible...please look at all our photos. 

(The seam has been hidden so that both sides are wearable)

The craftsmanship on these waistcoats is truly remarkable and they all have such character...please note that these waistcoats are long enough that they could be worn as mini dresses over a tunic or blouse...just add some hook & eyes for closure at the front!
