1930s women’s suit and coat styles

Blue seems to be very much in style for womens suits and coats in 1935! Tailored and neat, only $5.98 for a blue tweed coat, skirt, and vestee. The matching hat, which came in 3 modes, could be bought for only 77 cents. Also advertised was a cotton waffle cloth summer jacket, a caped coat of treebark crepe, ascot scarves, and pretty much every thing made of crepe or tweed! “Stout sizes 37-53 bust” – what a much more flattering way to size than by the waist! Sporty suits were definitely in style in the mid 1930s!
