Earlier this week, I found this pair of black silk satin lounging pants, which after research I guess are c. 40s. Yesterday I went back to the same shop and found what I at first assumed was the jacket to go with them, but after getting it home, I'm less sure and would welcome more expert opinions.
The pants are silk, while the jacket is rayon.
The pants have a strip of red and gold embroidered fabric on the inner cuffs, so I assumed any matching top or jacket would be the same red and gold?
The jacket construction seems right for 40s, and it has shoulder pads, but the lining is synthetic, which seems...maybe not right for 40s?
If these are a set, would there have been a third piece, a blouse or top? I'm kind of thinking so as the jacket doesn't fasten all the way down, but the pants are very high waisted, so....not sure.
Any opinions or insight welcome!
