This cropped jacket ~ featured in The Pale Court memorial fashion show
at Convergence 12 in New Orleans ~ is made from a dramatic red
matte-finish stretch satin with an allover design of swirling black
flocked velvet. The contrasting lower sleeve flounces are fully flared,
and made from semi-sheer black georgette. The front of the jacket has
black satin lacing which gives a corsetted appearance, and can be used
to customize fit.
It looks lovely on whether it's laced fully closed, or if you leave
space in the middle to show off what you're wearing underneath.
The chest measures approx. 36" (33" fully closed), the overall length
from shoulder to lower hem is 18 1/2", and the sleeve length is 27
1/2".
Shown being worn with the matching
Rosegarden Bodice (available
separately).
