Versatile Original 1950s Vintage Black Collarless Blazer By Pedleys

This lovely jacket was made from rich black wool in the 1950s. It’s collarless and open fronted cut makes this a super versatile piece worthy of any capsule wardrobe. A single pin tuck highlights the lines of the collar and runs all the way the plackets to the hem to add a fabulous detail. Inside, the jacket is lined in pink satin and has a maker’s label for Pedleys.

The blazer is in very good condition with only a seam repair on the outside and a couple of marks and flaws on the lining as pictured.

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.
