VINTAGE 1970S RED QUILTED PUFFER VEST BY ROFFE – SCULPTED CHEVRON STITCH / 70S SKI STYLE – THE MADELINE

A vivid cherry red puffer vest by Roffe with sculpted diagonal quilting that curves across the body in a soft chevron rhythm — giving shape to something traditionally utilitarian. The oversized padded shawl collar rises gently at the neck, creating a cocooned silhouette that feels both protective and quietly dramatic.

There's a sense of movement in this piece — like apres-ski at dusk, boots on wood floors, cheeks still cold from the air.

Finished with metal snap closures and hidden side pockets, it's equal parts function and statement. Lightweight but warm, designed for layering yet strong enough to stand on its own.

Inside, a small handwritten tag reads "Madeleine" — a trace of a previous life, now part of the story. We've kept her name.

A garment with a past—ready for its next chapter.
