A truly special vintage treasure, this elegant black velvet evening jacket whispers old-world glamour and after-dark romance. Likely dating from the 1940s–1950s, this piece features a dramatic open front, soft sculptural velvet, and the most beautiful blush satin lining that catches the light as you move.
The silhouette is long and fluid, designed to drape rather than cling, with gentle sleeves and a decorative front clasp adorned with subtle sparkle. A small velvet bow at the waist adds a feminine finishing touch. Handmade in Australia, this jacket speaks to an era when garments were crafted slowly and lovingly, with intention and skill.
Perfect layered over a silk slip, evening gown, or worn open with denim and boots for a modern twist on vintage glamour. A rare and timeless piece that feels just as magical now as it would have decades ago.
Condition
Beautiful vintage condition for its age. There is some stitching coming loose underneath the collar (not visible when worn) — a very easy mend for anyone handy with a needle. Priced accordingly and reflected in the rarity and age of the piece.
