Both sleeves from the upper ruching down can be used once cleaned. Tiny crochet lace buttons up each lace cuff.

There is tons and tons of spectacular handmade French lace throughout the jacket to repurpose once cleaned.

Mustard yellow Teens Era Outfit

From the seller:

Vintage 1880's to 1920's Women's Victorian Jacket and Skirt

Nice Mustard Color With Possibly Black Velvet Trim (Feels like velvet. Back then it probably was really velvet)

Purchase from an Estate Sale.

Nice condition. No rips or tears. There are small stains here and there. (Please see pictures) The wrap around tie on the jacket still functions and clasps in the front. There are silver buttons on the front center of the skirt that are intact and still function to close the skirt. There are no buttons on the jacket but I am not sure they had buttons to begin with.

I am not sure of the size. I can give your information so you can determine. Please feel free to ask questions. The waist on the the skirt is 24 inches and it is 35 inches long. The only thing I can say about the jacket is it is 27 inches long.

From Me:

My network is acting up and I'm not sure why. So I'm not sure how many posts I'll be able to get in today but I did want to share this beauty. This is probably early 1870's, based upon the waist length and the bustle styling.

Late 1920's everyday dress

From the seller:

A classic 1920's everyday dress. This was the type of dress that a woman would wear during the 1920's on an an average day. SHe might have worn it to run an errand or go to a neighbor's house for a cup of sugar, but it was not the sort of dress that would have been worn to a party or wedding or church service or for an evening out.

The dress is made of 100% cotton. It has a navy blue background & a "checkerboard" print in cream. Small collar, vee neckline, 3/4 length sleeves w/cuffs. Dropped waistline accented w/cream pipin, 2 belt loops. Pull-on style - no hooks nor snaps.

Size - Large. Actual measurements of the dress - bust 40", waist 40",hips 44", sleeve 22", length 44".

Condition - overall, good. However, the dress does have a little age - there is some very slight fading in front. Also, a 1/2" x 1/4" spot on the upper back (spot barely shows). Otherwise, good condition.

A CLASSIC 1920'S EVERYDAY COTTON DRESS.


From Me:

I almost thought this was an early 1930's feedsack dress due to the print but the style and cut is very 1920's.
