Harlequin Diamond Set
This textile is one of my most favorite textiles that I have ever come across. I bought it and a lot of 7 yards and while it was very narrow in width, I was able to squeeze two garments from the textile. It is from the 1940s and has a printed harlequin diamond pattern printed over a cotton feed sack base.
The original tag for the fabric cutting was left on the yardage that I received and was $19 per yard. That’s $133…seems a little high for the 1940s.
The convertible collar is an irregular shape. The base of the fabric is actually an off-white cream color and the diamonds are more of a coral red. All buttons are mismatched wooden buttons from the 1950s.
These pants have an elastic waist band with a drawstring. There is a functioning four button placket at center front for closure. These pants have a relaxed and easy fit.
Please see sizing below as the fit of these pants can be adjusted for anyone from a size small to a large.
Please note that all textiles are 50 to 75 years old and may contain irregularities and/or areas of irregular color. All stains and fabric imperfections have been treated by us to the best of our ability.
