This cute jacket was made from black wool in the 1950s. It was cut in a loose fitting shape to skim the wearer’s body. The small collar has been bound with shiny decorative trim, which also runs down the placket and adorns the flaps of the functional pockets at the hip. Twelve buttons have been arranged in a double breasted configuration to fasten the coat. Inside, the sleeves are lined in crepe with the remainder of the jacket unlined and without maker’s labels. 

Bust: 37”

Shoulders: 15 3/4” seam to seam 

Length: 23 1/2”


The jacket is in very good condition with only a slight fray to the trim as pictured. The sleeve lining is coming slightly away at the underarms seam. 

 

This garment is available to purchase with or without dress shields. These clever little contraptions have been made by our seamstress to an original 1940s pattern and can be simply attached to your garment by tack stitching at the corners of the underarm seam, pinning (we wouldn’t recommend that, it hurts if it goes wrong, so if you try this, it is at your own risk only) or inserting tiny poppers. They then stand ready to absorb any sweat and body odours as needed and you can simply detach and launder them instead of your garment, saving you a fortune in dry cleaning bills.

 

They are equally suitable for suits, blazers and dresses and come in two different options:

 

1. Pure cream cotton for your heavier weight dresses, blazers and suits

or

2. White cotton muslin for lightweight summer dresses (so they don’t show through the fabric)

 

They are universally sized and super easy to use even for a sewing novice as only a couple of tiny stitches are required at each side to secure them.

 

We sell Dress Shields as a standalone item or at a discount if you purchase them with a garment. We will select the appropriate type to match the garment you have purchased.
