Condition
I originally thought this may be a genuine 1950s pants suit but on digging up my old records I am not 100% sure. So I'm selling this as a 1950s style (but definitely made from an original pattern) You would never know if you saw it, it looks like it stepped right out of the 1950s. The cummerbund was commissioned by me around 10 years ago. From a condition perspective, just some light fraying to the inside seams. Also please note that the mannequin doesn't have legs so there is no real shape to the pants. Much better on a real model. Cleaned and ready to wear. Please drop us a line if your require additional information about this listing.
