This Sasson wool skirt suit is a late-1970s three-piece set in cream wool crepe.
An open-front jacket, coordinating shell and straight skirt create a clean column
of color. Delicate embellishment runs down the jacket’s front edges and across the
shell’s neckline, adding detail without a large print.

## A cream Sasson wool skirt suit in three pieces

The jacket has softly rounded, structured shoulders, long sleeves and a collar that
stands slightly away from the neck. Its open front leaves the matching shell visible.
The skirt fastens with a zipper and button at the waist and falls around the knee
on Jackie. The three pieces are sold together; the boots in the photographs are 
styling accessories.

## Measurements and fit

The modern size is an estimate based on the garment, not a standard conversion from
French 44. Use the measurements below to compare with a suit that fits you comfortably.
Allow room to move rather than matching your body measurements exactly to the garment.

  |  Garment measurement |  Inches |  Centimeters |  
   |  Jacket bust |  36 |  91.4 |  
 |  Jacket length |  24 |  61 |

0/2. The suit is gently clipped on her for the photographs. Shell measurements are
not included above; [contact Quirk for additional fit details](https://shopquirkla.com/contact-us/)
before ordering if needed.

## Styling

Wear the complete set with simple evening shoes, or separate the jacket and shell
for a less formal outfit. Quirk’s photographs show the front, the shell with the
jacket draped over the shoulders, and the back. For alternative separates, browse
