26L Set of Fifteen 1980s Country Club Diva Fashion Buttons, 5/8"

Set of fifteen vintage gold-tone shank buttons dating to the late 1980s, featuring a classic rope or twist border surrounding a sparkling cluster of clear rhinestones at the center. Made from lightweight plastic with a metallic gold finish, these buttons were designed to deliver a polished, high-style look while remaining practical for everyday fashion.

The rope border paired with a rhinestone cluster is a hallmark of 1980s “country club” or preppy/WASP aesthetic fashion, influenced by brands such as Ralph Lauren, Lacoste, and Lilly Pulitzer–style designs. The gold tone and added sparkle brought glamour to blazers, cardigans, yacht club jackets, tennis dresses, and power-dressing separates, making this style especially popular for upscale casual wear. The plastic base and machine-set stones are characteristic of the 1980s mass-production boom, clearly placing these buttons after the 1970s and well before the minimalist trends of the 2000s.

Each button has a shank back for easy sewing and a smooth fit on garments. Size measures approximately 26 lignes, 16.5 mm, or 5/8 inch, a versatile medium-petite scale ideal for button fronts, cuffs, pockets, or coordinated sets.

Condition is excellent vintage, with bright gold-tone finish, strong rhinestone sparkle, no missing stones, and consistent matching across all fifteen buttons. Made in Italy.

A generous matching set perfect for vintage fashion restoration, 1980s collectors, or designers looking to add classic preppy elegance and period-correct sparkle to their projects.

Measures approximately 26L, 26 lignes, 16.5 mm, or 5/8"
