A most lady-like sweater-jacket, lined in acetate. The heavily-beaded design is repeated on the back, as well. 3/4 sleeves add to that vibe – so Kennedy Era . . . . . . . . . . . . . ..
Jackets like this were worn over sheath dresses, with slacks and skirts. This one is by Banff, a former maker of fine knits. Remember the yellow summer sweater I showed a couple of months ago? Same maker.
These were available for sale at fine department stores and in small specialty shops, sometimes in popular vacation areas.
Again, not my color but, hey, the right necklace or scarf/blouse/dress underneath can take care of that in no time . . . . . . . . . . . . .
