Item 046. Black/gold `jewelled' jacket.
Heavy jewelled jacket! In all my years of collecting vintage clothes, I've never seen anything like this. I bought this astonishing jacket from the lovely `Vintage to Vogue' shop on Milsom Street in Bath Spa. Covered in gold embellishment and little `jewels', and fully lined (partly in velvet), this is a very heavy jacket. Perhaps 1970s? Perhaps earlier; as it seems to be hand-made (no labels), it is hard to tell. If you made an entrance in this, I don't think you'd have any risk of meeting someone else in the same thing! An attractive `swing' shape, with ties at the neck. Inevitably, some of the `jewels' have come off, but it is largely intact. The jacket itself is certainly robust. About 21 inches across laid flat and 25 inches long. Sorry about the postage; it really is a weighty item.
Price £50.00. Postage £8.44. Total £58.44.
