Hi!
I have a full length coat made of 100% virgin wool and fox fur.
It's labeled "Rosenbergs Milwaukee" and also "Velange Luxury Loomed of 100% Virgin Wool".
There is also a National Coat and Suit Industry recovery board tag hidden behind the Velange label that I just found.

The coat is fully lined with brown silk and I can feel the slightest amount of padding at shoulders, however, it's underneath the silk lining.

Any help dating her would be greatly appreciated. I see in your label resource that the NRB was used from the mid 1930s to 60s.

Thanks!
Brooke

I would have totally thought this was 50s too and it could still be. The swing style, big collar, and wide sleeves were very in then. The longer the length the more likely. The reason I leaned towards early 60s though is because over the past few years I have had several early to mid 60s Lilli Ann swing coats with big fox fur collars and wide fox fur cuffs that were quite similar. They may have been shorter in length though.

Thank you all! Caryn I definitely have seen some of those Lilli Ann coats, but this one does seem to be a bit longer than the ones I've seen. I'll have to measure and compare. Thanks again!
