The elegant shoulder line is accented by gathered and raised pleats along each yoke, which draw the eye to the full length inset sleeves. The timeless straight longline cut of the jacket, accents the classic silhouette of the era while showcasing the eye-catching geometric pattern.

A small replacement patch to the rayon along the central part of the hemline to the lining. Scattered age marks and a few dark marks to the lining.
