………………….The Tortoise pattern was taken from 18th century Tortoise Tea Caddies I had collected. Many mistakenly though that it was an animal print, but it was not. The fabric was a beautiful jacquard knit. It was a very simple silhouette, and followed the lines of the body. It had a stand collar and a TWO WAY ZIP front, so you could “style” it in a way that worked best for your body. The pockets were hidden in the seams, and they too zipped closed for a very streamline look,. This was one of those miracle jackets that seemed to look good on the great majority of women, and they loved it. To this day women comment to me on how much they love this jacket, and how good they look in it…..The word was SLEEK! It came in four colors…..Grey, Chocolate, Cobalt and Raspberry Truffle………SCROLL TO NEXT PAGE FOR ONE MORE COLLAGE OF THE DEC. GROUP!!!!!!!!!

Louis,
I felt so attractive and curvy in this jacket. It showed off the waistline I no longer have! Looking at all these fabulous fashions makes me drool! Not a good look at my age….
