1920s Taffeta Summer Coat

1920s Taffeta Summer Coat

For this 1920s summer coat I used a similar pattern as for this 1920s raincoat. Because I hadn’t more of the fabric, the coat is a bit short. Usually mid-to-late 1920s coats were as long as the dress, but there were also shorter coats, such as this 1926 ash-pink cloth summer coat by Jenny. It’s made from an apple-green taffeta which is embroidered with roses. The coat is gathered at the hips and has a double welt pocket at the side. It closes with studs in front.
