Description

Sketch of a model in a waist-length jacket with three buttons and a large rolled collar, the whole lined in alpaca. It is worn over a knitted top, hooded that only exposes the eyes. It is worn with knee-length shorts with zippered pockets over knitted leggings.
Handwritten on drawing: --- let it rain let it pour - I'll wear little chopped coats this year - in canvas warmed with alpaca - I'll wear long skinny tuck-in pants - or these cropped ones with all that wooly leg-art I've collected - / Bonnie Cashin
