Sweet 50s wool set in lovely color block grey - just waiting for a flash of color for the accessories! This is a nice, sort-of soft wool flannel, a bit like the texture of a 49er jacket. I see one not-great mend on the blouse, but it is lower than where it tucks in, so will not be visible if worn as presented! This type of wool I generally consider moth bait, so would advise storing folded with cedar (if you've ever owned a Pendleton of this era, you know what I'm talking about). I am floored there is just the one hole, mended, and no others! The skirt has a full length acetate lining. The blouse is unlined. Really, just perfect for winter!
Shown on my 36-26-36 form, with 15" shoulders. Belts NFS, just shown for styling.
Measurements are of the actual garment, not of a body. When possible to estimate, we will give "best fit" measurements. It is always recommended to have your measurements taken by an experienced tailor. To compare your own garment to that of the shown vintage, do NOT stretch, many older vintage garments have very little stretch or wiggle room. If you are particularly tall or petite, you may want to write for different ratio measurements. I base the ratios of my measurements on my own "average" size, 5'4". When possible, I try on a garment to check where certain hit spots are - such as an under bust on an originally juniors item may be narrower than an average woman's rib cage or under bust, or the shoulder seam placement, as that varies from era order to era. Someone who is taller or knows that their torso is longer (or has a fuller bosom) may want to check the shoulder to waist ratio, which is not commonly added.
If you have any questions or would like to see more pictures, send a message. We are happy to accommodate. We ship within a few days, USPS first class or priority mail, based on weight. If you need something sooner, Etsy will let you know the upgraded shipping price. Expect that items will need to be steamed or ironed after shipping!
Please note that these are vintage items, and there may be signs of wear. When possible, we will show imperfections and the price will reflect these. If you feel something has been misrepresented, we would like to hear from you. But, please allow for concerns to be addressed before your purchase.
