Sorry, this item has sold.

1940s Beautifully hand Knitted White and Black Chevron Shoulder Cape, with padded square shoulders and original Pearl buttons.

The cape is panelled to give a more structured look to the folds of the fabric.
Recently it’s been re-lined in an ice white rayon fabric, but the garment has never been worn, but stored since 1949

Wonderfully soft and warm, it’s styled lower towards the back, giving a slight fishtail look.

It has a very dainty stand up collar which is worn pulled up snuggly around the neckline.
