Joan Vass

Joan Vass

Joan Vass wasn’t always a New York fashion icon. Before her name became synonymous with luxurious, unstructured women’s sweaters, tunics, pants and dresses, John Vass was using her education in philosophy and aesthetics as an assistant curator for the Museum of Modern Art. Joan Vass developed a fascination with textile art, and made it her mission to connect with talented local women and introduce their beautifully crafted hats, scarves and knit clothing to the marketplace. Her efforts resulted in a unique brand of artisan women’s clothing that earned Joan Vass the Smithsonian’s esteemed Extraordinary Woman of Fashion award in 1978. Joan Vass’ label has expanded to meet the demand for her unstructured sweaters, tunics, cardigans and drape front shirts. Known for luxury fabrics and timeless-yet-modern designs, Joan Vass clothing is sought after for classic silhouettes and comfortable luxury. From cotton skirts and dresses to color-block cardigan sweaters and cashmere shirts, Joan Vass clothing is a brand American women know, trust and wear with confidence.

Love these pants. Great, unusual fabric. Got them in two (dark) colors and might also get a pair in black. Very comfortable and surprisingly flattering. These are comfy everyday work pants for me... but could work as both more dressy or more casual. They do run very long, though, so plan to hem them. I always take a size 2 in Joan Vass (I'm normally a size 12 pants), so I didn't think they ran big. Good price for Joan Vass.

Comments:
I bought this jacket to go with the matching short-sleeved top--I live in "layers"--and I think it's great! Very unique looking, with the snaps used as decoration around the neck... and it has some more snap detail on the back. The set is a classy and casual reprieve from the standard "sweater set" -- but can be used the same way. When I'm not wearing the jacket, I generally tie it around my waist. The usual, fabulous Joan Vass quality!

Comments:
I'm 5'4" and generally a 2. I love wearing this dress. This is a "tent" style dress, which is gathered by a matching belt. It's very comfortable and very versatile. It is probably not universally flattering, since it is definitely not tailored. If it works, though, it's a terrific dress.

Comments:
This is a very comfortable top. I can't figure out if it's flattering or not - I'm 5'10", size 8 and I sort of look like I'm wearing a toddler's dress. It feels like a quality product though, and like it will wear well. I got a size medium and the fit is nice.
