Classic Original 1950s Vintage Black Textured Knit Sweater Set With Beaded Collar

This stunning sweater set was made in the 1950s from black wool knitted in a textured basket weave pattern. The small collar, hem of the top and sleeve cuffs feature a contrasting ribbed knit that allows for some stretch. The collar has been adorned with small transparent beads and larger faux pearls and nine black buttons fasten the top at the front. Inside, it is unlined and has a Garment Worker’s Union tag. The matching skirt continues with the basket weave knit but also features subtle wide ribs that give it further texture. The waist is elasticated, allowing for flexible sizing and we have shown below the measurements at rest as well as at maximum comfortable stretch.

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 pure white cotton.

 

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.
