Brand Poppy's Vintage Clothing
This is a beautifully tailored vintage 1940s mens suit jacket, custom made by Moni & Morris of Montreal. There are no matching pants, but this is the type of jacket that could be worn with lighter coloured pants, a classic 40s fashion statement. This 1940s mens suit jacket is made of quality wool worsted in a tone of blue that was popular during the 1940s and 50s, but no longer seen, kind of purplish, but still blue, very rich in tone. The shoulders of the jacket are heavily padded, consistent with 1940s styling, and the jacket is made with wide peaked elongated lapels that are quite prominent. It has a four button double breasted front and closes with only one of the buttons, although there is a second button on the interior. There is a jetted pocket at either side and a pocket at the left chest. This 1940s mens suit jacket is fully lined in striped blue satin fabric.
