Description

This faboo early '50's jacket is a major wardrobe enhancer. Very Reporter Lois Lane at The Daily Planet!  There's just enough classy sparkle on the collar to make this
stunning jacket a perfect choice to meet Superman for Happy Hour.
Eye-catching design in an interesting shade of mustard-gold wool with matching silk lining.
The collar is accented with bows on both sides.  Small rhinestones and tiny bronze beads placed on a diagonal bring the bling!
This jacket was created by designer Paul Parnes who was known for high-quality fashion.  [Read below:]
Paul Parnes
dress company was formed in 1931 by Paul Parnes and his brother, Edward Parnes. The two came from a dress manufacturing family. Their father, Louis Parnes, first began making clothing in Manhattan in 1895.
Paul Parnes started his own operation in 1922. In 1927 he formed a partnership called Sadowsky, Lang and Parnes. The name was later changed to Mary Lee and was eventually bought by well-known designer Adele Simpson, who had been creating the line.
In 1931, Parnes left Mary Lee to form his namesake company -- manufacturing “better” dresses. In 1964 the company brought out a lower-cost line, Paul Parnes, Ltd.

"Secret Closet Vintage" is my personal closet where I've been stashin' fashion since the 1970's.  I've never sold anything from this faboo, rarely-worn collection before.  But I've decided that it’s finally time to pass on these great finds for others to appreciate and cherish as I have.
This collection comes from a pet-free, smoke-free environment and everything has been professionally dry-cleaned before shipping.
Be aware that any obvious flaw in an item is noted & photographed. Athough many of my offerings are in remarkable condition, pieces from the 40's, 50's & '60's
can
show signs of wear consistent with age. That's part of the patina & charm of vintage!
