Seller's description
NOTE: the blouse shown is not included and not for sale.
Oh my. This is a terrific set. It is unlabelled but has a strong Bonnie Cashin vibe, I have no way to verify that it is and cannot find an image as reference so I am not selling it as a Cashin. It is just as possible someone made this in the style of.
The set consists of two pieces: a below knee pencil skirt and a long cape. Both are made from a golden or mustard yellow textured woven tweed wool flecked with white. Both pieces have natural suede trim. Both pieces are unlined.
The skirt has a pencil silhouette. It has a side zip and hook and eyes on the slim suede waistband, It also has angled pockets.
The cape is long at the back and shorter at the front. There are slits to the hem for the arms. The cape closes with concealed gold snaps. It has a collar, the underside lined with suede. There is suede trim around the armlets and hem. There are small belt loops on the front panels, but it was missing its original belt. I have bought a natural coloured leather belt which I will include with the set. It does not have to be worn belted. The main, most interesting, and most Cashin feature is the integrated, kiss lock, gold framed purse on the left front. It is lined with suede and acetate. It is quite deep. My XL iPhone 8 does not fit, but smaller smart phones will (check the measurements). Cashin employed this integrated purse concept to thwart pickpockets. I just love the luxury of b being hands free. You can fit your keys, a card, some cash, lipstick and a smaller phone in the pocket. Such a great idea.
The set is modelled by Faye who measures 34-25-35. The skirt has a waist of 26.5 inches. You may be able to move the eyes a bit on the waistband to get an extra 0.5 inch. The hips are 40 inches wide. The skirt length is 30 inches including the 1 inch waistband.
The cape is hard to measure. I think it was made for a 36 bust or maybe 38. There are no shoulder seams to measures the shoulder width. The length down the front is 28 inches, down the back is 46 inches. The pocket/purse is 5.5 inches deep and 4.75 inches wide.
The set is in very good condition. The hem on the cape had been taken up, hiding the suede trim. I have taken it back down to its original length which means it is the same length as the skirt at the back. There are very slight wear marks on the suede but they are hard to see. I can see no marks on the tweed, Because of the texture it is almost impossible to see if there are holes or pulls unless they they are large enough. There is nothing large so if there is anything, it looks wholly natural and they blend in.
Please zoom in on the photos and feel free to ask any questions.
I ship tracked and insured worldwide. Depending on where you are, your parcel may require a signature upon delivery. I only charge for the actual postage costs (I do not charge for packing materials or my time). I make educated estimates for shipping but if I have overestimated, I do refund the difference. I do combine for shipping and have organised it so that if you put items in your basket, you will see this reflected in the overall shipping costs but again, if the total shipping comes in less than quoted, I will refund the difference.
IMPORTANT: If you live outside the UK, you may have to pay additional import taxes or duty on your order. I will not list items as gifts or undervalue them so please do not ask. If you are unsure of whether you will have to pay tax, check with your tax office PRIOR to purchase. US CUSTOMERS: As this particular item is MADE IN THE USA, there will be NO tariffs, and can be DDP.
