I love the classic cut of this suit with it's box jacket and slim pencil skirted dress. And I could go on for days about the fabric! It is rich and luxe and amazing! Really one of the best example of silk and textiles of this period I have seen! The dress is a slim cut simple shift that is cut to skim over your curves. It is refined and graceful and the color is perfection. I love the coppery pink thread mixed with silvers that is woven into the soft green silk back drop. The colors pop off each other and it just adds to the rich feel of the set. The jacket is classic box cut but with wonderful details like that wide band at the bottom back and the fabric covered buttons. It is simplicity mixed with a masterful seaming and cutting and extraordinary fabric. This is from the Custom line to the equivalent of a a made to order one step under couture piece! Excellent condition and a true beauty
