Description |
Ladies' jacket of black silk completely overlaid with black lace. Jacket is short and close-fitting and comes to a slight point in the back. Plain, short standing collar forms simple finish to neck and closes down the center of the front. Closing is invisibly effected by means of hooks and eyes. The black lace applied over the shoulders and part way down the front, giving a cape-like effect, is different from the lace applied over the jacket. The black lace applied from elbow to wrist of sleeves is also different. Jacket is lined and worn with stays. |
