Vintage 40s Women's 3-Piece Suit -Sleeveless Top, Pencil Skirt, Tailored Jacket

Description

Vintage 1940s women's taupe 3-piece suit set from Swansdown - New York. I believe the fabric is rayon - it's definitely a plant-based fiber.
JACKET:
The unlined tailored jacket has two front slash pockets, shoulder pads, long cuffed sleeves, pearlized lucite buttons, bound button holes and two inside pockets.
TOP: The top has cap sleeves and a front tie. The back closes with 5 clear buttons.
SKIRT:
The pencil skirt is below the knee with waist darts and side metal zipper and button closure. There is a 2-1/2" back slit at the hem. It is unlined and has pinked seams. (skirt does not have a seam in the front, I put it on the wrong way for pictures. The seams are on the side.
NOTE: the top measures much larger than the jacket & skirt and it might have been purchased later time but the fabric is the same. Approximate Measurements taken flat
