Not many would disagree that Babe Paley was/is one of the most iconic American dressers but we're not all Babe Paley types. The little Norell suits that worked so well for her can make a lot of the rest of us look maybe a little, well, matronly. Does that mean you rule out the dressmaker's suit? Not quite. You break it up and treat a boxy tweed 60s jacket the same way you would one by Chanel - wear it with slim dark jeans. A tulip skirt. An Alice Roi shift. Davidow's chunky wool jacket in bronze, charcoal, black and ivory with a black silk crepe lining and a row of tidy round black buttons. Flap pockets low near the hem on both sides, there are small side vents and high decorative flaps near the breastbone. Bust measures up to 40", shoulder to shoulder 15.5", outer sleeve 22" and length 24.5". Excellent condition. sold |
