1960's Pauline Trigere Dress & Jacket Suit

This page may take longer to load due to all the pictures below...it's well worth the wait !

O.K. So I almost kept this gorgeous Trigere 1960's Suit dress for myself !...Can you really blame me? Done in a rich wool tweed, with red, white and Kelly Green all sublimely interwoven in the fabric. The texture of the fabric has a slightly nubby feel to it, as opposed to it being flat or smooth. The bodice of the dress, on the other hand, is a smooth light-weight wool jersey. Fully lined in red silk crepe de chine. The dress features two hidden side pockets. Check out the fabulous oxidized metallic buttons on the jacket. Excellent condition except for a few tiny moth nibbles in the bodice of the dress...due to the matching red silk lining, you really have to look for these...these could be professionally stitched up, but to be honest, they are so small, I would recommend leaving them as is...a slight bit of wear to the lining of the skirt...but again...these tiny flaws are really NOT worth mentioning in light of the overall condition of both the jacket and the dress. At one time I did consider having the bodice removed so that it would be just a jacket and skirt ensemble...and this can still be done...if you want to have a bit more versatility with the pieces. Even the jacket is lined in fire-engine red silk crepe de chine ! Fabulous Trigere...as always !

Dress measures up to : 35"-26"-37"/16" from shoulder to waist, 40" long from shoulder to hem.

Jacket measures up to 36" at the bust, 30" at the waist, 18 1/2" long and has 24" sleeves/15" across the shoulders.
