Original 1960s Vintage Harrods ‘Antonette’ Black Wool Tunic Size 12/14

This is a very rare and beautifully made vintage piece from Harrods, Knightsbridge, under their highly regarded ‘Antonette’ label. Tailored in 100% virgin wool, the fabric has a softly textured crepe feel with a structured yet fluid drape that immediately speaks to its quality. Cut in a longer tunic length, this is not a dress but a sophisticated blouse/top, designed to skim the figure and offer versatile styling options. The removable button-on white collar and cuffs add a striking contrast against the deep black wool, instantly evoking the sharp monochrome looks of the late 1960s Mod era. Worn with the collar and cuffs attached, it channels that iconic Mary Quant-inspired crispness; without them, the silhouette transforms into a sleeker, minimalist black tunic with understated luxury. The design is further enhanced by subtle flap detail at the chest and a row of engraved Harrods crest buttons, which provide just the right touch of refinement. The fit is around a modern UK size 12–14, depending on desired ease. Still retaining its original spare button, the piece is in very good vintage condition, with only minimal, expected signs of age. A superb and unusual find, this Harrods tunic encapsulates both the Mod chic of the late ’60s and the timeless elegance of Harrods tailoring, making it an investment piece that works as beautifully today layered over trousers, culottes or mini skirts as it did half a century ago.

At My Vintage, we take time to carefully measure each item of vintage clothing so that you have the best chance of ensuring a good fit whenever you buy from us. We measure the clothing laid flat as the diagrams show below and for bust, chest, waist and hips we double the measurement. For example, if the waist measures 17" across when laid flat then this would equate to a 34" waist (17 x 2 = 34)

We use the measurements we collate to assign each item of vintage clothing with an approximate modern-day size. For example, a dress with a 34" bust, 28" waist and 34" hips would normally equate to a current UK size 10. The labels on vintage clothing can vary massively depending on country of origin and date of manufacture. Clothing sizes have changed over the years and from decade to decade we see alternative types of sizing as well as variations on the way measurements equate to dress sizes.

We always recommend that you double-check the measurements of the vintage clothing item you are interested in, ideally by measuring an item of clothing you already own and that fits well, and comparing these measurements. There can be variations due to the desired fit, shape and fabric of an item but our size guidelines are normally very accurate and take the stress out of buying vintage online.

When buying vintage online, it is important to have as much accurate information about the item(s) as possible. As well as multiple photographs and detailed descriptions we also provide information about each item's condition. To make this even easier to follow, we have created this simple Condition Guide that provides an easy reference as you shop with My Vintage...

Excellent - In pristine condition. Looks unworn and as new.

Very Good - Normal wear but condition is very good for age of item.

Good - There are minor flaws to be explained in the item description.

Fair - Will need more significant repair, damage will be explained in description.

There are so many great reasons to buy vintage clothing. Firstly the unique nature of each item means that you are always buying something super special and in most cases one-of-a-kind. Not to mention, of course, the huge benefits for the environment. Buying vintage clothing as opposed to always buying new, is such a brilliant and sustainable way to shop for fashion. The more we share, swap and recycle our clothing, the more we help to reduce our carbon footprint.

Vintage clothing is also so well made, with many of the fabrics being of incredible quality and the craftsmanship second to none. It really is so often true when they say 'they don't make them like they used to'.

From vintage dresses to vintage handbags, vintage jumpers to vintage trousers, vintage suits to vintage shoes and so much more - when you shop at My Vintage you are sure to find unique and stylish vintage fashion cherry picked by us and delivered to your door anywhere in the world.
