1940's Pink Sweater & Skirt Set
1940's Pink Sweater & Skirt Set
**Some fun information on the history of this set and it’s label:
The label “Zip-Off Hem by Jernat” refers to the "zip-off" hemline at the skirt. This hemline gives the wearer the option of shortening the skirt by simply cutting the threads of the decorative stitching between the hem segments. This skirt originally had three segments, which means that a previous owner shortened it down to two. The new owner could shorten it even more if they so choose.
