Archival Louis Feraud Paris Skirt Suit 80s Power Suit Canary Yellow Black Graphic NOS Deadstock West Germany Size XS S
**A Masterclass in 80s Architectural Tailoring & Power Dressing**
**The Piece & Historical Context:**
Louis Féraud (1920–1999) was a visionary who bridged the gap between fine art and haute couture. This Louis Féraud Paris ensemble represents the peak of European prêt-à-porter from an era defined by bold silhouettes and uncompromising quality. While his designs were born in Paris, the "Made in West Germany" era of the 1980s is highly coveted by curators for its superior textile engineering and durability.
The vibrant canary yellow hue is striking, accentuated by graphic black piping that traces the sharp, structured lines of the blazer and the clean-cut skirt.
**Material Excellence:**
Crafted from a high-performance Virgin Wool Blend (45% Virgin Wool, 55% Polyester)—specifically chosen by the Maison for its sharp, architectural drape and wrinkle resistance. The interior features a designer silk-jacquard lining and the iconic gold-tone hanging chain.
**Curator's Condition Report & Provenance:**
* **Status:** Excellent Vintage Condition (New Old Stock / Deadstock). The fabric maintains its original saturation and crispness.
* **Archival Traces:** To ensure full transparency for our international collectors, we note two minor storage signs: A singular, pin-sized storage mark at the hem of the skirt, and faint, nearly imperceptible shadowing on the right sleeve (visible only under close inspection).
* *Curator’s Note:* These are superficial “storage signs” consistent with long-term archival preservation over three decades.
