1940s Red Wool Gabardine Suit - 1940s Red Suit - 1940s Womens Suit - Red Suit - 1940s Gabardine Suit - 40s Gab Suit Size Small

Professional construction with no design or manufacture label present. This stunning 1940s womens suit is done in a tomato red wool gabardine fabric with a red crepe lining in the jacket. Gorgeous mid century tailoring, the jacket features a nipped waist, padded shoulders, and original rhinestone embellishments at the waist.

The skirt is sleek with the slightest A-line cut. The jacket fastens with all original matching covered buttons intact and the skirt fastens with a side metal zipper and top button closure.

Condition is listed as very good plus. I note only one small mark just below the left lapel on the jacket. There is a very faint spot the size of a thumb print that presents a touch darker and what I believe is a small ink mark within this, measuring just about a quarter inch.

These notations are generally unseen without very close inspection. I find no other issues to either garment and both pieces have been freshly professionally dry cleaned and are ready to wear! Presentation is stunning!
