This lovely coordinated Dress and Duster set can be worn separately or together and makes a lovely statement! The elbow-length sleeves are wide and comfortable for a spring or fall day.

Leslie Fay was an apparel company founded in 1947 by Fred Pomerantz who named it after his daughter. Pomerantz produced women’s army corps uniforms during WWII using sizing statistics provided by the government so that the uniforms would have the best standard fit possible. He employed the sizing methods used for the uniforms in his line of women’s dresses and sportswear. He offered department stores substantial profit margins. They mostly produced affordable, conservative but stylish dresses and suits for married women.
