70's High Waist Bell Bottom Flare Jeans, Medium Blue, 'KBV' Label, Marked Size 7/8, popular with Flap Front Mini-Pocket
Great pair of 1970's High-waist Bell Bottoms, KBV [or KB Roman Numeral V] label. They have one small front pocket with a flap that closes with a button and loop at the right front. A matching pocket is at the left back. It appears the button at the fly was moved slightly to give a little more room, but could easily be returned to its original position. The zipper is a ‘VKK' brand.
The wash is a medium blue and the denim is medium weight.
I estimate this would best fit a modern size XS – they are marked size 7/8 - but please go by measurements below.
NOTE: Measurements are taken lying flat from the outside, then doubled for bust/waist/hips. Generally, you will want to be smaller than these measurements to allow for room to move.
Waist: 24 ½” [button can be moved to gain about ½”]
Hips: 37 ½”
Rise Front: 12 ¼”
Rise Back: 14 ½”
Inseam: 33 ¾”
Length at outer leg from Waist to Hem: 44”
Width of Leg Opening: 12 ½” flat
Weight is 1 lb., 4 ounces, unpackaged
Condition is very good. They have been washed and are ready to wear. These are in quite nice broken-in condition, with just tiny few bleach [or white paint splatters] and a couple holes near the hem of one inseam. Photo #10 shows the 3 small white marks, located at upper right thigh in two views. There is one darker line approximately 6” up from right hem. There are two holes near the left inseam – one is frayed and about 3/8” round, the other is much smaller and nearer the hem. There is a white hem-line 1 ½” from the hem – fortunately the previous owner did not cut off the original hem. The button was moved out [and up] just a bit from original position – this is easily returned. One 2” section where the stitching is loose from the outside leg flat-felled seam – it's in the over-stitched section, so it's just a matter of re-stitching.
