Description
Stunning vintage skirt suit dating from the 50s in a blue floral glazed cotton by Berketex Continentals. The jacket has a nipped waist with slight peplum, long sleeves with upturned cuffs, deep neck with rounded notched collar, and blue plastic buttons with a crackled effect. The skirt is very full, with a small waist and lots of gathering. The original metal zip was broken when I bought this piece, so it has been replaced with a modern nylon zip. Pictured with full petticoat.
Label: Berketex Continentals; Spain, Italy, Paris.
