Here is a suit that can span the seasons just by changing the accessories. For Spring/Summer: Shades of lilac complement Integrity's Town and Country taupe suit. Floral tilt hat, lucite purse, and reversible gloves are from The Couture Touch, shoes from Joe Tai, bracelet from Facets by Marcia. Gilty Girl Gene Marshall from Integrity is my model/muse.Click photo to enlarge
The jacket lining was my inspiration for the color of the accessories. You can see a hint of the lilac and white dotted lining in this close-up shot. I replaced the original jacket buttons with beading. Click photo to enlarge
The same suit, this time accessorized with a fur hat and muff from one of Ashton Drake's Hat Sets. I reversed the gloves to the slightly deeper shade of pink, eliminated the bracelet and changed the earrings. A perfect, soft look for Fall/Winter. Click photo to enlarge
Inspiration for Integrity's Town and Country ensemble? Adele Simpson designed this suit that was featured in an ad for Juilliard's St. Regis 100% Virgin Wool suiting fabric. Source: Vogue, August 1, 1948 issue.
