A brown wool pinstripe suit with a jacket and skirt. The jacket (.1) is made of a twill woven wool. The jacket has a notched collar, princess seams and two front side seams. Three brown plastic decorative buttons run down the center front of the jacket. There are two taps at bottom of the jacket at hip level with slits on each side that align with the front side seams. The sleeves are set in and are three quarter length. The back of the jacket has side back seams and two darts at the edge of the collar. The inside of the jacket is lined in orange woven synthetic crepe. Cotton interfacing is placed in a four-inch band at the bottom of the jacket, the sleeve cuffs, the collar, and shoulders.
