A caraco is a style of woman's jacket that was fashionable from the mid-18th to early 19th centuries. Caracos were thigh-length and opened in front, with tight three-quarter or long sleeves.
Like gowns of the period, the back of the caraco could be fitted to the waist or could hang in pleats. Caracos were generally made of printed linen.
This type of caraco will rarely come up for sale.
