This is a fabulously flattering vintage 1940s women's suit jacket! Shoulders are padded and silhouette is fitted with vertical darting creating the classic nipped in waist. The angled rectangle piecing for the bust is unusual and works beautifully. The jacket has exaggerated notched lapel and faux hand warmer pocket flaps. The turned up sleeve cuffs are notched - if you need a bit more length, you can remove the tacking and let them down.
