1940s taupe jacket & skirt suit by Forstmann, 100% virgin wool.

Amazing details on the jacket with beautiful seaming, lapel collar & that shawl collar which is so stunning, stylized pocket flaps on front. Straight skirt with metal zipper, kick pleat at back.

Very good condition- a small snag on the skirt & at the back near seam on the jacket. A very faint stain on the back of the skirt. Please see photos for details. This piece has a faint moth ball smell once we steamed it...hoping a professional cleaning will help to rid that. Priced accordingly.
