\'Artificial Silk\' Suit - 40\'s? or Cusper? I haven't done a burn test on this yet, but I'm pretty sure it is rayon (or as they so quaintly called it "artificial silk'). The jacket has small flat shoulderpads, self-covered button closure, pinked seams, fitted with short peplum with scalloped hemline. The skirt is long and rather a-shape (not straight pencil as you see in the 50s). I'm guessing late 40s, but would love to have this confirmed. <img src="http://image.inkfrog.com/pix/bartondoll/Dcp_0428.jpg"> closeup of jacket: <img src="http://image.inkfrog.com/pix/bartondoll/Dcp_0430.jpg"> no label in this Sue
this just looks so versatile. Gal in the corporate world going to work and then drinks and dinner afterwards. Looks 40's to me Very Very nice!!!!
Thanks Pauline! The last suit I had that I thought was 40s was actually early 50s, however the skirt on it had a much straighter silhouette. Sue
