Size 10 Lavender Suit - Soft Lilac Faux Suede 1970s Office Set - Medium Long Sleeved Spring Soft Purple Open Front Jacket & Tailored Skirt

A terrific purple spring suit... the jacket alone is worth this nice price! It's a classic suit in a dusky lavender hue, made in the late 1970s when faux suede was beautifully made. Open-front jacket has a curved notch neckline with saddle-stitched shoulder seams and welted slant waist pockets. Matching skirt has pockets set into the side seams, light gathers to the fitted waistband and a center back kick pleat. Both pieces fully lined.
