A vintage 1940s pantsuit in cotton. The top has puffed sleeves, pleats at the front shoulders, and buttons up the front with red buttons. The pants button at the side with navy blue buttons. (Note: the color of the pantsuit on my computer looks a bit purple, but the true color is a dark blue.)
Size: xl
Top:
Bust: 50"
Waist: 46"

Waist: 35" (waist has been taken in slightly, and if let back out, would probably work for 36")
Hip: 50"
Length: 41"

Condition: Very good to good. Pant suit is sturdy and wearable, but does have uneven fade. Fade is most noticeable on back top and shoulder and back bottom pant leg. The pants waistband also has some adjustments. There is a small panel that was added to extend the waistband, a couple darts were let out, and there are also some tucks in the waistband--see close up pictures.
