80s/90s Vintage Houndstooth Wool Set$220.00
I absolutely love everything about this skirt suit, starting with the fact that the pieces remained together— I love a set! It's giving me Cher from Clueless, meets 90s Chanel. The material is a bouclé wool houndstooth, with some subtle red details. This piece was made by custom-order brand Carlisle in the early '90s, possibly late 1980s. I absolutely love a frog knot closure, and I'm obsessed with the way they're complemented by the soutache trim. In addition to these decorative closures, the jacket has a placket with hidden snaps, to ensure the perfect fit/no gaping when closed. It features slight shoulder pads, faux flap pockets in the front, and a cropped/fitted silhouette. The pencil skirt features a slit to one side, and a closes in the back with a zipper/button. The jacket is 100% wool; and the skirt is a wool/mohair blend. Both pieces are fully lined in acetate for comfort.

Great vintage condition. There is some natural wear to the bouclé, including some minor loose threads, but nothing is noticeable when worn. There is some wear to the jacket's lining, which is not visible when worn. With any questions please email shop@verybreezy.com
