Stunning Original 1940s Vintage Spring Mint Green Swing Coat
This fabulous coat was made in the 1940s from a mint green loosely woven nubby wool. It was fashioned in the classic loose fitting swing coat style of the period with padded shoulders and a free flowing fit below. The notched collar leads into long lapels that run the length of the coat and there are no fastenings. Notched slit pockets add a wonderful feature to the coat and matching notched turn up cuffs finish the sleeves off beautifully. Inside, the coat is lined in pale green satin and has a maker’s label for Sportleigh and a retailer’s tag for Forbes & Wallace.
Bust: 42”
Shoulders: 15” seam to seam
Length: 31 1/2”
The coat is in very good condition with only a few very minor external flaws and some seam splits to the lining as pictured.
