1960s Orange Wool Knit Suit

In a vivid orange wool double knit, we think this cute little suit gives St. John a pretty good run for the money. The collar and front hip are punctuated with a lacework and embroidered floral design - a nice feminine touch.  The jacket is single breasted with three covered button closures.  The skirt is straight with a side zipper closure and a bar hook at the waistband. Pair it with a seafoam green Calvin Klein silk blouse, or wear nothing underneath - any way its a winner. Flat, unstretched measurements are: Jacket Bust 38", hip 34", sleeve (center back to sleeve hem) 30", length 23". Skirt waist 26", hip 35", length 2.5". Both pieces are unlined and in excellent condition. Made by Modesto in Hong Kong at the time when it was a British Crown Colony. Both pieces are unlined and in excellent condition. $140
