truly rare vintage rescue from The Sustainable Comeup. This is a genuine 1950s-era Christian Dior (Paris/New York label) women’s wool coat.

The History:
This is likely a WWII/Post-War "Sweetheart Coat." It features an authentic vintage felt patch from the 332nd Fighter Group (Tuskegee Airmen). It was likely worn by a wife or partner to honor a pilot in the legendary Red Tails squadron.

The Details:
•Size: Tag says "12" but this is 1950s sizing. It fits like a modern Women’s XS (approx. 32" bust).

•Material: Heavy Navy Blue Wool with silk/satin "CD" monogram lining.

•Condition: Selling as a "Project Piece." It has some surface wear to the wool texture (grazing) and the front pocket flap needs to be stitched back up (it folds down).

•Price: $260 (Local Pickup Price)

•Pickup: West Philly (Porch Pickup available).
Shipping: Available via FB Shipping.(Dm address and I'll let you know your options).
