VTG COURREGES Women's Sz S (6) 2-Piece Skirt Jacket Suit Navy Cotton Blend

Description

A vintage (late 1970's--early 1980's?) Courreges crisp, beautifully designed 2-piece skirt suit in a navy blue cotton blend. The sizing on each item is different: The jacket is labeled a 000 which I would say is a 6/8 (see measurements below) and the pencil skirt is labeled A, which is more like a 4/6 (see measurements below.) The double-breasted, moto-styled jacket (which might have had shoulder pads--the seams of the lining at both shoulders have an opening) features stylized sleeves that are sewn to slightly puff at the shoulders--finished with button cuffs, an open pointed collar, two horizontal zippered chest pockets, a moto jacket style back with a band at the lower back with double button closures, and elasticized panels on the side--to blouse a bit at the waist.
The straight pencil skirt (unlined) features a back button and zip closure, a waistband that has 2 buttons at the front--more for style than function--two side slash pockets at the hips, and a couple of pleats on the front to the sides of the pockets. The skirt has been taken out to the max and has a ribbon hem on the interior. The skirt does
not
have a vent or slit. The suit fabric is made of 67% polyester and 33% cotton, the lining is 100% acetate.
The suit is in excellent pre-owned, vintage condition.
Freshly cleaned. Per above at the shoulders of the jacket on the inside are 2 openings at the seam of the lining--where I assume were shoulder pads.
