This late 50s suit is the cream of the crop! It's a gorgeous hand crocheted pattern with a mid-century tailored jacket over a pencil skirt. Jacket has a pair of shallow pockets with faux pocket flaps and bracelet-length sleeves. Matching blouson shell is soft and willowy. All three pieces are fully lined and meticulously hand-finished.
