1930s evening ensemble
Every piece is vintage except for my socks, and I bought them all separately across the country over two years. Almost everything required repairs.
The jacket had damaged sleeve lining which I replaced. One of the front buttons had bent and busted off, and was placed in a pocket. It’s roughly 1930s I think. The company was Foreman & Clark Clothes, “Upstairs from coast to coast”.

The trousers are Basil Durant Inc. New York. Most likely 1930s as well. Basil Durant was a vaudeville actor who started a tailoring business after vaudeville’s decline. It has silk lining on the trousers which had to be restitched.

1940s/30s? Red Suspenders. I’m honestly not as sure on the date for these, but they are in perfect condition. Bonus picture of Paris Swing suspenders about 1930s or 40s.
Paris garters 1930s or 40s.
1910s/1920s vest. It was heavily yellowed from starch which came out with gentle hand washing. Unknown maker
1920s/1930s evening shirt. This one probably had the worst damage since I know it was used by costumers/actors. The second buttonhole was completely opened and ravelled. Various stains and pinholes. I had to rebound the buttonhole.
1900s-1920s collar
Silk scarf about 1940s.
1970s Floreshime shoes.
1890s-1910s watch fob.

I dressed a bit like the Vault Tec representative in Fallout 4 on Mother's Day.
Vintage 60s Penny Towncraft raincoat/overcoat and a Resistol trilby. It was raining hard!

Don't be an April Fool, be an April Fish! CLASSY!
translation: "April 1st— Ask this fish he knows and will tell you my name"
card, probably lithographed. sweetened in Photoshop because collectors and auctions never photograph their collections well.
