Tax included.


Rare to find velvet that's retained its original aesthetic quality, especially from the 40s! This is insanely good vintage silk velvet; super soft and luxe looking, and the quality is amazing.

Lined in rayon, with a single fastening to the front, this jacket is collarless and can be worn straight at the front or folded back into a revere. 

Gorgeous pleating detail on sleeves making this a truly timeless piece.

Condition

Incredible condition for age, no balding at all on the velvet, tiny bits of compressed nap but negligible.
