1910s - 20s French opera costume. Tan leather gilet decorated with metal plates and studs, to appear like armour. Fastens up the back with buttons. Linen lined and has costumier stamps. 

Measures: 20 1/2” underarm to underarm, 16” shoulders, 24” long in the body from neck to hem, 19” across the waist

Condition: this has many marks and scuffs to the leather. Some of the stitching has come undone at the scalloped hem. There are also split stitching at the underarm. There are missing studs and some of the metal plates needs stitching back into place. I have four spare round button studs and one small square one which I’ll include in the parcel. 

Please inspect the photos and ask any questions you have.
