Blue Wren Vintage
BREATHTAKING suit from Lilli Ann as featured in Harpers Bazaar January 1952 edition. It would be extraordinarily difficult to find this suit in such immaculate condition. This beautiful cream coloured jacket and skirt in a worsted wool. Worsted wool originates from the city of Worsted in the English county of Norfolk and is said to be very strong and is a very fine type of wool used in high quality suiting..
Her jacket has strong structural shoulder pads and elaborate, exaggerated wide sleeves which feature a red stitching on approximately 3/4 of the sleeve. The jacket has a red silk embroidered feature near the left shoulder in the same red that is on the sleeve. She fastens with three buttons to the front which are original to the garment. She is fully lined in a matching cream silk which is in impeccable condition.
Her skirt is a slim line skirt which fastens to the side with a button and metal zipper. She has a kick pleat to the back. This skirt is her original length, and her hem allowance is made from silk, the back of the skirt is also partially lined in the matching cream silk. Her skirt has a very large seam allowance so could be made larger should the owner desire.
