Powder Blue Wool Tweed Cropped Jacket

1950s · 1960s · American

A cropped wool tweed jacket in powder blue with cream lining visible at the collar. The garment features a collarless round neckline and three large wooden or horn buttons positioned asymmetrically down the front. The silhouette is characteristic of 1960s tailoring with a boxy, straight-cut body that hits at the natural waist. The sleeves are three-quarter length, ending mid-forearm. Two patch pockets sit at hip level. The tweed appears to be a medium-weight fabric with a subtle textural weave. The construction shows clean, geometric lines typical of the period's shift away from the fitted silhouettes of the 1950s toward more architectural, modernist forms.
