This is a recent find, stately and elegant with no fuss or decoration. Just a lovely cut, well-fitting sheath that falls to the floor.
I love black velvet, and this is sumptuous. Not the velveteen that was quite popular during that decade . . . . . .. This dress, I feel sure, was custom-tailored. It’s done very well, but seems to have the hallmarks of hand-construction.
I’ll be keeping this one for a LONG time . . . . . . . . . . .

Two stylish coats with flattering lines. I always love a nipped waist. The style on the left, I believe, is from the fifties but could have been a bit earlier. The coat on the right is from the early 1970’s.
Still wool, which we’re needing in many places yet, but in lighter-weight colors that can make us feel like swinging into Spring before too long . . . . . . . . . . . . .
