This is a wonderful vintage 1940s ladies coat made of pebble finished black wool.  This vintage 1940s ladies coat has heavily padded shoulders and shoulder tucks, which hide the shoulder/sleeve join seam.  The coat has a kimono neckline and does up with three shiny black plastic buttons, one at the neck and two lower down the front - the top one does not match the lower two although it is similar.  There is a pocket built into either side and there is a 17” kick pleat at the back.  It is fully lined in black satin and has satin shoulder straps that hold the coat in place on the body.  This vintage 1940s ladies coat was very large on my mannequin so perhaps does not present itself as well as if it were to fit properly.

Label: No label present

Sizing: No size is indicated on this vintage 1940s ladies coat and although it should fit an extra large size, please note the following measurements, taking the thickness of the wool into account:

Shoulders: 20” across seam-to-seam

Sleeves: 23” from shoulder seam

Sleeve Inseam: 17 1/2”

Bust: 56” around, 28” pit-to-pit

Waist: 58” around

Overall length: 43” measured flat at the back from the neck seam

Condition: Aside from the mismatched button, this vintage 1940s ladies coat is in very good condition with no pronounced wear, tear, stains or odour - this coat looks like it saw little use, and was well cared for and stored over the years.

This is a wonderful vintage 1940s ladies coat - very difficult to find a 40s coat like this in an extra large size!
