1940's Navy Blue Jacket with Fantastic Collar & Pockets
A jacket I bought with a wool and silk blend, but it never felt right, so I ended up not wearing it. I think that the shoulders were too big. I took off the buttons to keep and let the jacket go for $15. I think it was New Old Stock.
1950's Curvy Lazarus Blue Gray Jacket w/Rhinestones
I wore this for a number of years, but got a bit thick in the waist to be wearing it anymore. It went to another vintage jacket lover, so that was nice.
Note the reverse pleats near the shoulders to allow for freedom of movement.
Jacket - 1940's wool and synthetic jacket, no labels, lining completly intact. Got it last summer, on one of the hottest days of the year in a flea market. No padded shoulders, that's all me!
Here's the first of many...I fit this for about 5 minutes, and finally gave this to my sister in law to give to our niece after giving up on losing enough weight to wear it again.
