This jacket and its matching skirt pay homage to the famous Dior's 'New Look' of 1947. The 'New Look' hailed a completely new silhouette and become the iconic 1950s wasp waist and full skirt shape of the decade.

This supremely elegant 1950s style jacket creates this stunning silhouette via creating strong shoulders and a nipped in waist. This is created by shoulder pads and a peplum.

The jacket is tailored to give a flattering deep plunge neckline, slightly raised to hug the neck and fastens with 7 covered buttons. Peplum style further creates that nipped in look by enhancing the hip. Long sleeves and bodice and sleeves are fully lined.

This jacket has been carefully crafted by skilled machinists from Yorkshire, England in a heavy crepe fabric and lined in top quality viscose satin.

Pairs with the 1950s Premium Circle Skirt - but also goes great with Hepburn Pants for a trouser suit look!

Key features:-
- long sleeves
- 7 covered button fastening down centre front
-  lined
- peplum

Elegant jacket

This jacket is so stunning and I get a lot of compliments when wearing it. I will get it in berry as well.

I hope you will make it in other colors e.g. black, white and navy.

Perfect!

This jacket is so beautiful and well made! It runs small, but the measurements given in the description was pretty accurate. Go with the waistline measurements. I’m about 84 cm around waist and 101 cm around the bust and I sized up to a size 16. It was perfect! The race green color is beautiful. Be aware that the matching swing skirt runs large in size compared with the jacket, so I should have taken my normal size 14, but I will fix that easily myself! For tall people this is a skirt with very good length.

Beautiful Style but Misleading Description

This is the first of two items I’ve received from HOF this month where a fabric used was not what was described on the website.

The “100% viscose” lining is actually 100% acetate. While acetate does contain cellulose like viscose, acetate is a much lower quality fabric. While some shoppers might not mind the distinction, please just tell us the truth about what we’re purchasing so we can make informed decisions.

That said, the color and cut of the jacket are beautiful and I was pleased that the waist was high enough for my short waist. I might buy this jacket again if I knew that the description matched the actual item better.

Sorry to read you are dissatisfied - we did do a run of this jacket with 100% viscose lining and then in the second run we used an acetate that was less bulky and worked better in the style. You are right that we didnt rectify the product description - thanks for pointing this out.
