Details

Vintage 1940s tailored black, chartreuse green, blood orange, yellow fitted jacket or blouse with color block pockets. We found company ads from 1944-46-ish for styles like this; they were sold separately from matching slacks to pair together into a suit or to wear separately. Rare! 

Fabric: "strutter" or "stroller" cloth, which I think is a rayon and wool blend, just guessing based on ads!

Closures: buttons, snap at waist

Labels: Bettilou Tailored Fashions
