Reserve Carrie Ann Lay-away Early 1940s Black Suit by Maurice L Rothschild for Brucewood

30% down lay-away for Carrie-Anne due 12/11/2108. Balance of $192.50 due 1/11/2019.

This is seriously my favorite piece of everything in my collection. This is such a chic and amazing suit, if only it fit me!!!

The jacket is lined in taffeta and has small shoulder pads. There are 40 small buttons on the front. I tried to lighten a couple pictures as it is so hard to photograph black. The jacket has two small decorative pockets and a tiny belt that ties. The top of the jacket has a sort of epaulet affect that goes down the jacket.

The skirt is an a-line and zips on the side. The fabric itself has a striped weave and appears to be some sort of cotton/linen/wool blend.

CONDITION:

This 1930s suit is in AMAZING condition! The only issue I find is a slight shiny spot on the back of the jacket (see pic.) It is probably from ironing.

Other than that, this outfit has no issues. No fading, stains, hoes, rips or smells. I am rating this as being in EXCELLENT-minus condition.
