From the personal wardrobe of fashion icon Iris Apfel, this exceptional 1970s Emanuel Ungaro haute couture three-piece ensemble exemplifies the bold color, fluid tailoring, and refined construction that defined Parisian couture of the era.
Crafted in silk with a rich orange silk crepe trouser and coordinating jacket and blouse, the set reflects Ungaro’s signature mastery of vibrant palette and sculptural proportion. The jacket features a relaxed yet architectural silhouette, while the silk-lined straight-leg trousers create an elongated, elegant line. The concealed back zipper and couture finishing details underscore its atelier-level craftsmanship.
Emanuel Ungaro rose to prominence in the 1960s and 1970s for his expressive use of print, color, and luxurious fabrication. Pieces from this period remain highly sought after by collectors and stylists alike.
