A fantastic vintage find! *Luv Inc. was trademarked by Lyndale Sportswear of Montreal. Elvia was Elvia Gobbo of Montreal, who began designing in 1967 and became co-proprietor of boutique Lionel and Elvia from about 1970 until early 1974. There she designed under the brand Luv Originals and Lionel designed under the label The The Factory. The team scored a first for Canadian designers when they exhibited at a prêt-à-porter show in Paris in 1971. In 1974 Elvia left for Les Mouches and subsequently, in 1977, for Malcolm Starr. * Union label in use from 1965 to 1984 * The lack of a CA number or care labels dates this to pre-March 1970. * The shorter “Luv Inc” on the label may date this to her earlier 1967–1970 period, but I cannot confirm.
