Anna Modeller
70s Vintage White Knit Dress

Lovely vintage late 60s/ early 70s white knit dress. Midi to ankle length. Tiny pintucks form a V-shape at waist, sleeves, and neck to compliment the curved V-neckline. Side bust darts. Tented A-line. I suspect this is an acrylic fiber called Leacril which the brand frequently used in their knitwear. Really elegant and well made. The pictures don't do it justice. Made In Sweden by Titti Wrange

Excellent vintage condition. Ever so very slight yellowing at armpits, seen only upon very close inspection and a bit of zipper pull paint chipping. See photos.

Anna Modeller was founded in 1958 in Torshälla, Sweden by Titti Wrange and her husband Bobbo and later established itself in Åhus in 1960. She initially started making hats and then children’s clothing. She knit a cardigan and wore it while visiting another prominent fashion designer, Katja of Sweden. At Katja's home, Titti met people from the Olsson's fashion house in Malmö who loved her work and started selling it. Anna Modeller became one of Sweden's most successful fashion companies with shows in New York, Paris, and London. Titti won many awards for her innovative clothes and ran the company herself into her 80s until 2015. She was one of the 60s and 70s most colorful textile designers.
