This is a dream suit. Classic late 60s design by Wallis, very much in the vein of Biba and drawing inspiration both from Art Deco and Edwardian fashion. Beautiful rich blue colour in a fine light wool fabric. Jacket is a cropped waist length design with buttoning asymmetrically to one side with no less than 11 buttons. Big dog ear collar and striking puffed and padded shoulders. Fully lined in purple acetate. Matching high waisted skirt with matching side buttoning and midi length with a soft a-lined silhouette. This is also fully lined.
SIZE
The suit is not labeled with a size but approx an XS-S depending on layering and how snug fit you prefer. For your best fit please refer to the measurements.
