Stunning 50s Mexican wool jacket in a vivid red with a really fantastic applique and embroidery hand work, a large lady and man in traditional dress on the back beautifully detailed with long braided 3D braids to the hair and real yarn fringing to the mans blanket coat and hat tie. Small sequins to the flowers. Cuffs, placket and collar all finished with yarn cross stitching. The silhouette on this one is really special, one of the best I've seen with strong puffed and padded shoulders, and a gentle a-line flare to the coat itself. Open front, not fasteners, and a collared neck. No labels.
