1940s Claire McCardell Att. Playsuit

About the Item
I have added some pictures so you can see some McCardell pieces that are similar in structure (all are in museum collections). Most telling is the dress - it's the same striping fabric and plain cream fabric on the top - I would imagine that this is from that same collection!
Bust: approx 15ish” from side seam to side seam
Will fit an A- B cup
Waist: 12” flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Total length: approx 32” from top of shoulder strap to bottom hem
The front of the play suit has an extra lining of cotton. The rest of the suit is unlined. The strap that crosses the front hooks into place and the other is longer and ties. It closes at the waist with a metal zipper and the a row of buttons up one side. There is a pocket on each side. The original Saks tag is still present as shown! It can be hand washed when cleaned again in the future.
