Late 1940s Red Bouclé Swing Coat by Peck & Peck

A striking late 1940s swing coat in textured red bouclé wool from iconic Fifth Avenue label Peck & Peck. With its voluminous cut and crisp tailoring, this piece perfectly captures the post-war transition into softer, sculptural silhouettes—designed for both movement and drama.

This coat features generous dolman-style sleeves with deep turned-up cuffs, a strong shoulder line, and a high fold-back collar that can be styled open or worn up for a more structured look. Fully lined in rAon faille, with slanted welt pockets and no front fastening, allowing the silhouette to hang gracefully from the shoulders in true swing style.
