The edge of the collar has been trimmed with white bias binding, which has also been used to trim the turn up cuffs and the edges of the large waist pockets. Inside the jacket is unlined and has a maker’s label for Nali-Bee with the cutest little bee logo. The matching skirt has been cut to a flattering longer length and fastens with an original metal side zipper and button closure above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJacket\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBust: 34”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaist: 26”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShoulders: 14 1\/2” seam to seam \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkirt\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaist: 24” plus 1” room to move the button \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHips: 37”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength: 29 1\/2” plus 2 1\/2” hem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe suit is in very good condition with only two very faint minuscule spots as pictured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThis garment is available to purchase with or without dress shields. These clever little contraptions have been made by our seamstress to an original 1940s pattern and can be simply attached to your garment by tack stitching at the corners of the underarm seam, pinning (we wouldn’t recommend that, it hurts if it goes wrong, so if you try this, it is at your own risk only) or inserting tiny poppers. They then stand ready to absorb any sweat and body odours as needed and you can simply detach and launder them instead of your garment, saving you a fortune in dry cleaning bills. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThey are equally suitable for suits, blazers and dresses and come in two different options:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e1.
