Rare 1920s ladies workwear example, presumably a Shop girl uniform made of a woolen twill fabric. Empire waist dress with contrasting straps and hook and eye closures up the side bust and waist. Belted Jacket with mother of pearl buttons up front and adorned on sleeve cuffs, with amazing deco printed silk lining.
Condition: good for age; small darns on both pieces a shown as well as some smaller pin holes. Overall color fading which adds to the charm of this piece. Some wear to lining, but doesn't detract
