This suit strikes a fine pose thanks to the skirt’s deep-ribbed waistband, which makes for a narrow, curvaceous fit. The boxy jacket’s virtues include slight gathers at the caps of the set-in sleeves and applied black ruffle edging around the V neck, down the fronts and across the bottom edge. The ensemble is knit in stockinette with high-texture Milano yarn.
