Iconic Early 1950's Lilli Ann "Touch of Mink" Hourglass Suit / SM
👋 A B O U T
Lilli Ann of San Francisco made the most coveted American suits of the postwar years, and this one shows why. The jacket has the New Look silhouette: padded shoulders, a nipped hourglass waist, and a sculpted, curved peplum that flares over the hips. A shawl collar with a double row of stitching frames four fabric-covered buttons. The cocoa-mocha fabric has a subtle slub and a soft sheen, and the label reads "Import Fabric of France." Plush mink cuffs and a mink rosette set with six emerald-cut rhinestones add the glamour. The slim pencil skirt has a back kick pleat and is lined in the same dusty-rose crepe as the jacket. It is a polished, wearable piece from the golden age of West Coast tailoring.
