1980s Vicky Tiel Floral Skirt Suit

Isn't it sad how the mere act of tossing a man (and he doesn't even have to be a particularly attractive man, at that) into a room full of women tends to bring out the 'competitive spirit' (ie, cat claws) in the feminine gender? It's genetic. That apple Eve ate must have been laced with pharmaceutical-grade LSD to make us buy into the malarkey that men are the demi-gods they want us to see them as. We think women should embrace each other as sisters, and treat one another as the amazing creatures we are, rather than view every other woman as a potential threat. So let the bimbo take your post-adolescent husband! Good riddance! Now go out and get yourself the best lawyer in town.  That said, we don't want to write men off completely, after all, sometimes they are kind of fun to play with.  And when you're in a playful mood, you want to look the part.  French designer Vicky Tiel is one of those female designers who obviously doesn't seem to have an issue with other women.  Her clothes are feminine, sexy and fun, and are designed to flaunt what you've got.  This beautiful silk crepe de chine suit is a fine example of her work.  The colors are vivid and stunning - deep fuchsia, magenta roses with green leaves on a black background. Short sleeved jacket is nipped in at the waist and  features a sweetheart neckline and a lightly padded shoulder.  Black silk trims all the edges, and buttons closed with a hidden button placket at the front. The look is ultra-feminine 1940s, and would be fabulous with a pair of platform peep-toe pumps. Both pieces are lined in black silk, and except for a couple of discolored marks on the lining of the jacket, are in excellent condition. Also bears a Nordstrom Couture label.   Jacket measures:  Bust 36", waist 27", shoulder 16", sleeve 10", length 23.5".  Skirt measures: waist 26", hip 37", length 21". sold
