This Verity takes its colour and design from an original rationed 1940s CC41 suit in our collection. The light, breathable linen blend fabric makes it ideal for warmer weather, though the classic navy blue shade allows it to be worn through spring into autumn. A versatile and elegant ensemble that is perfect for vintage occasion wear such as weddings, nostalgia events and work functions.

• Features a deep scalloped peplum
• Distinctive 40s-style nipped-in waist, enhancing the wearer's silhouette
• A row of covered buttons and rouleau loops on the bodice to fasten
• Large round half-collar
• Unlined for lightweight comfort
• Coordinating pencil skirt with an authentic metal zip

These separates can also be worn independently to make the most of your purchase. 

55% tencel, 45% linen. Please note: contrary to the label, we've found the Verity is best washed by hand. Iron with warm heat. Do not tumble dry. Dry in the shade.

Please note: the Verity suit is a very fitted style and runs smaller than our other women's suits. We advise customers to size up from their usual size. Consult the size chart for measurements.

Also note that the jacket length measurements for this suit refer to the length between the highest shoulder point and the waist seam, not the bottom hem.

Our model Vittoria (navy suit) is 5ft 5 and a UK 06-08. She wears a UK 08 in this style. Alice (green suit) is 5ft 3 and a UK 10, but wears a UK 12 in this style.
