1970s Dolphin California jumpsuit in ivory with a fitted openwork knit bodice and softly flared trouser legs. The close-fitting one-piece design creates a long, streamlined silhouette through the waist and hips before widening gradually toward the hem.
The upper section is made from a decorative openwork knit arranged in narrow vertical patterns. It features a wide scoop neckline with ladder-style detailing around the edge. Matching openwork trim finishes the cuffs. A long zip fastening runs down the centre back
The scoop neckline, fitted waist and flared legs give this 1970s Dolphin California jumpsuit a strong disco-era appearance. However, the soft neutral colour and intricate knitted construction keep it refined rather than overly theatrical.
Dolphin California was an American fashion label, and the original woven label remains attached at the neckline. The distinctive construction, flattering proportions and dramatic flared legs make this an especially striking example of 1970s knitwear.
