Dolina Australia · Clothing & Accessories > Women's Suits & Blazers
Era / Decade
Late 1990s to Early 2000s (Y2K era). Identified by the brand label font, the shaped button-up blouse silhouette, and the specific use of leopard print faux-fur texture combined with polyester crepe.
Material
Likely a 100% Polyester crepe body with a synthetic acrylic/polyester faux-fur blend for the collar and cuffs. Features plastic dome buttons and integrated shoulder padding.
Condition
Excellent. The item appears well-maintained with no visible stains or snags in the crepe fabric. The leopard print pile is intact and does not show matting.
Demand Level
Moderate. There is a strong niche for 'Mob Wife' and 90s 'Office Siren' aesthetics currently, making this item more desirable than standard vintage office wear.

$25 - $45 USD (Low: $15, Mid: $30, High: $45 depending on the platform's Y2K trend demand)
Estimated Retail Value

Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Depop or Poshmark. Depop is ideal for reaching the Gen-Z market interested in 90s/Y2K vintage. Poshmark is excellent for Australian brands and professional attire.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Mob Wife,' 'Y2K,' 'Office Siren,' 'Animal Print,' and 'Indie Sleaze.' Take a photo of the item on a mannequin or styled with a black mini skirt to show the fit. Emphasize the shoulder pads as a structural feature.
