Really sharp and slightly gothic Lilli Ann black fitted 40s jacket with yellow and black striped ribbon trims. The dagger collar is just fantastic, big and so sharply pointed, accentuated by the striped ribbon finish. Softly fitted silhouette with the curved ribbon running across the bust. Long sleeve. Very fine light wool gabardine type fabric, lined in black rayon. Has a coat and suit recovery board label to the side seam, and Lilli Ann label to the inside placket, as well as a La Vogue label to the neck, which may have been the stockist in New Port, VA.
