60s Mod Patti Boyd School Girl Style Floral Linen Suit 60s Olive Green Orange Two Piece by Arthur Jay

I remember wearing a very similar style floral suit in this same linen and cut when I was in high school, in 1967, so I was thrilled to find this.....and I still have never found another. The label, designed by Arthur Jay, has the most groovy and playful font, and I cannot help thinking of Patty Boyd's school girl style dress in "A Hard Day's Night", or the goofy "ChittyChitty Bang Bang" farce movies of the era.
I wore my matching skirt very short as a mini skirt, but the hip hugger A line skirt that comes with this suit is longer. It has a plastic zipper, and no hem to speak of. The jacket is fully lined in a brown satin, but the skirt is not lined. Plastic olive colored buttons are all original, and the sleeves are beautifully styled in reference to old English and MOD fashion. I also love the scalloped front of the jacket that mirrors the peter pan collar. No Flaws anywhere, on either the jacket or skirt!

Skirt: 32" waist....could be a hip hugger....
