1980's Escada Tropical Print Skirt Suit With Peplum Jacket
About the Item
Some of the most beautiful power suits of the 1980's sprung from the artistic mind of Margaretha Ley and her Escada label. This fun black and tan tropical print is a bit of a departure with a more casual lightweight silk fabric in a design reminiscent of the glamorous 1940's era including an extra high waist skirt and peplum jacket with strong shoulders. The collarless jacket buttons at the front with angled pockets, a nipped waist and a voluminous peplum shape. The high waist skirt has an asymmetrical zipper at the back with a kick pleat and darts at the front panel to create the perfect hourglass silhouette. Perfect as a warm weather suit but consider wearing the skirt as a separate with a black tank and flat sandals for a completely different look. Both pieces are fully lined and in excellent condition.
