Here I present a lovely early 1940s style check Harris tweed pure new wool skirt suit with a flared skirt and a short jacket with geometric detailing down the front and back of jacket and panelling on the skirt. Featuring padded shoulders, a large collar and navy vintage buttons, very typical of the era.
