Size 10 Red Suit - 495 Dollar Original Tag - Sophisticated 1970s Faux Suede Jacket & Skirt - Haute Quality - Late 70s Deadstock - Bust 36.5
$ 94.50
A beautiful red suit! We weren't sure exactly what color to call this haute quality 1970s suit, so we did a check with Pantone - and its cheeky reply was 'high risk red'! It's a high style too with its original $495.00 tag attached from the late 1970s. The jacket has a notched lapel with svelte shaping to the torso and double rows of top stitching. It's fully lined. The A-line skirt is a classic with darts to the fitted waistband.
