I marvel at this jacket, there is a beautiful embossing in the velvet. The sleeves have three points of additional fabric, making it quite dramatic. There is no fastening to the front.The sleeves point at the cuff and popper fasten. It measures 16 in across the shoulder, from seam to seam. Sleeve is 23 in long.Body 21.5 in long at back and 17 at front, creating a gentle tail affect at the back. The jacket is silk chiffon lined. In great condition.
