A striking early 60s department store piece from Penn-Fifth Avenue, New York. This vivid red wool jacket features a sculptural double-breasted front, cropped swing silhouette, and dramatic black faux fur collar that frames the neckline beautifully. The hot pink spiral buttons add a playful pop that feels unexpectedly modern, very much in line with current color-forward styling trends.
Penn-Fifth Avenue was known for producing high quality, fashion-forward garments in the postwar era, often made in New York under union labor. This piece captures that moment where tailored midcentury structure meets bold, almost mod color sensibility. Easy to wear open over dresses or layered with denim and boots for contrast.
