This is an incredible and rare find. Everythign Western was the rage in the late 30s and early 40s and the trend translated over to women's wear resulting in fabulous pieces like this little jacket. It is made of a wool "Pendleton" style plaid blanket fashioned into this adorable fitted jacket. The cut is simple, sleek and fitted. It sits to below the hip and closes down the front with big silver metal engraved buttons. Huge rounded and angled pockets sit on each hip becoming a design detail themselves. The best detail is of course that fringe. It runs across the bust and back and circles the entire hem. It is just fabulous and still feels fresh and modern some 75 years later. Plus you just can't beat that delightful western label. Presents as excellent condition
Fully lined in a gold toned rayon satin and closes at the front with domed and engraved silver buttons. There is a nick out of the fabric on one front pocket and near the end of one sleeve. Priced accordingly and with the age and fabric this really just adds to its feeling of authenticity.
