Late 1930s–Early 1940s Periwinkle Lilac Wool Clutch Coat by Kerrybrooke

 

An exceptional example of late-1930s to early-1940s outerwear, this Kerrybrooke tailored clutch coat showcases the era’s sculptural design and refined attention to detail. Crafted from a soft periwinkle lilac wool, the coat features soutache embroidery at the shoulders, exquisite draping, and bold decorative metal buttons at the neckline — hallmarks of luxury pre-war tailoring. Its voluptuous cut makes it an unusually generous and rare find from this period, when fabric restrictions soon transformed silhouettes.
