Jasper Conran 1980s teal grosgrain skirt suit - womens 8 6
A 1980s skirt suit by british designer jasper conran. The most striking aspect of the suit is that it has been produced in grosgrain, a fine, tightly woven corded material often seen as ribbon but rarely seen (these days anyway) as a fabric for full garments. The jacket has a a collarless, three button front (with fabric covered buttons) and heavily padded shoulders, and the skirt is short, with a split at the back.
Please note that both the jacket and the skirt have numerous stains (see pictures).
