Original 1940s Western Fringe Plaid Jacket designer-vivienne-westwood This is a rare find

This is a rare find indeed

Note that it is very tiny and would not fit on any of my mannequins hence the hanger presentation

It is cut to wrap around the torso of the wearer like a corset of crystal

Some minor darkening marks here and there across the surface but nothing that impacts the overall presentation
