Amazingly warm and so chic at the same time. Vintage brown and ivory nubby woven tweed swing coat and matching flared skirt ensemble. The coat has all the details - a strong (but not overly dramatic) raglan cut shoulder, notched cuffs, chunky horn buttons, extra flared hem, crepe lining, smart collar and huge patch pockets with decorative embroidered arrow/welt detail on top. The coat can fit a range of sizes, while the simple flared skirt is fixed at 24" waist. Coat has a "Coat and Suit Industry National Recovery Board" and Claire Peroue of Paris/Detroit labels. Skirt has a label "Harvey Berin, designed by Karen Stark". Circa 1940s/1950s.
