The perfect spring suit from the 50s in a simply showstopping bright coral pink. Lightweight and unlined in what feels like a woven rayon, texture not dissimilar to linen. Gently a-lined skirt with high waist and side zip with button. Unlined. Matching jacket with beautiful fitted silhouette, single breasted with five small covered buttons to the chest. Slim lapel and lightly padded shoulders with 3/4 length sleeves. Waist is nipped in and the hip hem is slightly curved with decorative little swirl appliques and diamontes. Jacket is also unlined, but internal seams are sewn with grosgrain ribbons. Beautifully made. No labels.

CONDITION
Good condition.
Beautifully stong and bright, only thing to note is some slight marks on the skirt, and a slight bit of grubbiness to inside of collar on jacket and slightly on the placket edge. I've not had this dry cleaned, and will most likely improve with a professional clean, but marks are quite slight so don't detract much as is.
