I own the twin of this exact piece and was happy to have found a second one that I can let some lucky girl buy. This is a version of the famous camel coloured knit and fox trimmed sweater that Jackie Kennedy Onassis famously wore in 1973. I have included photos of her in it along with the original runway presentation of that version. This version is an all black with a simple thick ribbed finish. It is cut with the same long and straight line through the body and long sleeves. Top set pockets sit on each hip. This one has a finish of a curly black Mongolian sheepskin fur instead of mink. This curves around the collar and wraps around each cuff. It is quite fabulous and a great piece to add over just about anything or wear on its own. Excellent condition
Unlined and buttons to close down the front. Pockets on each hip. Tagged a vintage YSL 40. The easy fit should allow it to work on a range of sizes.
