Description
This season features woven stripe denim items, which were originally advertised in 1914 and are now almost non-existent in vintage collections. Rather than a print, the stripes are woven into the fabric, clearly positioning it as a competitor to Stifel’s Wabash stripes. An analysis was conducted using a fabric swatch attached to a novelty notebook distributed in retail stores. The fabric is made from No. 10 cotton thread in three colors—indigo, natural, and charcoal—woven in a left-hand twill.
The design is a work coat that retains elements of a sack coat, with a silhouette featuring an A-line and no stand collar. Before the introduction of special sewing machines, features like eyelet buttonholes and bar-tacks were not used. All buttons are changeable, and the collar and cuffs can be adjusted using two buttonholes. The pockets are attached with double stitching, sewn twice using a single-needle machine.
