A little piece of history!!

1960s “Copper Beach” Jacket Irish Haute Couture 100% Wool 100% Silk Lined Pink Blazer Designer Vintage Made in Eire Vtg Size 10

Some slight discoloration on outer bottom, looks like just some dust or dirt, and the inner lining has yellowed especially under the arms. Might smell slightly old or dusty like grandma's house, not a bad or gross scent. Fits like a modern women's medium in my opinion

Sybil Connolly (1921 - 1998) was an Irish fashion designer who brought Irish fabrics to the forefront of haute couture in the 1950s. Her innovative designs featured traditional Irish textiles
like tweed, flannel, linen, crochet, and bainin wool, and shes often called "Dublins Dior".
Connollys designs embodied the classic 1950s feminine style, with fitted bodices, A-line skirts, and cinched waists. She dressed some of the worlds most glamorous women, including Jacqueline Kennedy and Elizabeth Taylor, and her work was featured in Vogue and Harpers Bazaar.

Connolly was born in Swansea, Wales to an Irish father and Welsh mother, and moved to Waterford as a teenager. She began her career as an apprentice dressmaker in London, then returned to Ireland in 1940 to work at Richard Alans, where she became design director in
1952. In 1957, she launched her own couture line..
