This utterly fabulous jumpsuit was made in the 1940's and is labelled Robert Rosenfield.
Made from inky black cotton velvet it features short sleeves, a button front bodice, slim fitting trousers, has pockets and is trimmed with beautiful beading in faux pearl, blue glass and clear paste.
A rare find and fabulous for an evening out!

Condition
Good with the following points to note;
- the belt isn't the original - it came to me with the jumpsuit but it is made from different velvet
- one of the paste stones in the belt is discoloured
- the bust darts are messy on the inner and appear to have been re-sewn
- when held up to the light there are three pinhead thins in the back where its lost a little of the velvet nap
