Silk tussah* in neutral tones of cream, beige, and navy makes up this classic suit with a nipped in waist and peplum.  A navy blue silk taffeta bow belt defines the waist and an Eiffel Tower brooch decorates the collar.  A navy silk bow hat is the finishing touch.

This fashion fits Silkstone Barbie, Victoire Roux, Poppy Parker, and FR2 dolls.

*Silk tussah is made from the fiber produced by wild silk worms and has a wonderful nubby texture.  It is naturally slubbed and may have irregular pieces.  These irregularities are part of the fabric’s natural beauty and should not be considered flaws.

One of my favorite Liberty prints, this colorway of Wiltshire is especially lovely for Autumn in shades of coral, olive, and magenta on a dark ground.  The sheath dress has a pleated cummerbund in a striking iridescent silk of clementine woven with dark purple.  A cropped, boxy jacket with a round collar is made from magenta silk noil, fully lined in the Wiltshire print.  A coppery purple faceted bead defines the neckline.

This fashion fits Silkstone Barbie, FR2, and Victoire Roux dolls.
