Black with lime dot taffeta suit
Black taffeta with embroidered lime dots makes a smashing skirt suit with a jacket which reverses to lime faux fur; ruffled folded collar snakes its way down the front on both sides. Circle skirt features a full underskirt of organza, tulle, and netting, in green and black, which just peeks out below the taffeta overskirt’s hem. Waistband is trimmed with thin lime satin piping.
