Help Dating Unique Vintage Beaded Blazer

[Gabriella Patti]

Hello All,

I recently purchased this blazer from Goodwill with tiered layer sleeves and glass beading. I am pretty certain it is an antique based on the shape, style, fabric, and beading, but I want to be more precise about dating it, which is where you all come in!

If you are familiar with the style and can more accurately date it, please let me know.

Some more info: the lining is pure silk, and it looks like it had some sort of tag inside that was cut out. Fabric button front with some hidden metal hook closures as well.

It looks 1940's to me. Perhaps lthe top half of a suit.

Thank you! Now starts the research to try to and find an old image or pattern that looks similar

What a lovely goodwill find, lucky you! I agree with Marian.
I have never seen anything styled quite like this one.

Do you have a recommendation for what keywords to use while researching? I've tried "tiered" and "tiered bell sleeves."

My first reaction was this is late 1940s, that '48 ish Victorian (Bustle Era) revival style. And yes, not a blazer but a suit jacket. It is gorgeous.
