I am offering this timewarp vintage suit to fellow Loungers before posting on EBay
This is a 2-piece business suit, comprising a black woollen jacket, a pair of striped trousers and the original complimentary wooden coathanger.
The Jacket
Tailored by Masters & Co. (Clothiers) Ltd., originally based in Shropshire in heavy weight black wool.
The cut is a classic 1930's style: highly structured, padded shoulders, high armholes, sculpted waist, short skirt (no rear vent).
Double breasted jacket: 3 pairs of Bakelite buttons, 2-button fastening (plus link button).
Deep lapels and revers with internal metal stiffeners.
Two flapped waist pockets and a chest pocket.
Fully lined with black silk and stripped cotton in the sleeves. One internal pocket.
3-button cuff.
Dimensions
Chest (pit to pit) 40"
Shoulders 18"
Sleeves 24"
Rear seam 28"
The condition is immaculate, there is a tiny moth nip (professionally darned) on the upper arm, but this is barely noticeable. Otherwise, no stains and no smells.
The Trousers
Also tailored by Masters & Co. (Clothiers) Ltd. from striped heavyweight wool.
Button fly, high waisted with a medium height fishtail back and cut for braces (external buttons impressed with 'Masters & Co. Ltd.).
Two side pockets, one flapped watch pocket and a flapped hip pocket.
Dimensions
Waist 33"
Inside length 30.5" (with an inch to let down)
Outer seam 42.5"
The wooden coathanger bears the legend, 'With Masters & Co.'s Compliments'.
I am asking £350 (plus shipping and PayPal fees) for this immaculate ensemble Please PM me if interested.
