The jacket of this two-piece skirt suit has a soft, bloused feeling above the waistline. Notice the novel collar, the effective seam treatment, and the dart detail, front and back. Charming covered buttons, self-tie bow under the soft collar. Long sleeves end in pretty upturned French cuffs. Five bound horizontal buttonholes and covered buttons decorate the front. The jacket is fully lined in a rust color crepe rayon. Slight shoulder pads provide structure, hand-tailored topstitching.

Four-panel straight pencil skirt, set-in waist band, with left-side metal zipper and button fastener.
