1960s Bonnie Cashin Leather Trimmed Suit

as a team or solo Oh the heartbreak upon discovering that Sonny and Cher were splitting up! But really, the only heartbreak would be for Sonny because Cher was just as, or even more, fabulous without him. When you see a suit, you have to think of every famous couple. No, you could never take Steve away from Edie. Jerry without Dean? Gisele and Leonardo? While all of them were smashing as a couple, there's something to be said about going solo every now and then. A suit may come to you as a suit but the potential of a thousand different looks is going to come from splitting the two up. Bonnie Cashin's weighty, chunky herringbone wool knit in greige, cocoa and black is made of two pieces that are slammin' together but equally strong on their own as separates. Little flecks of pumpkin and celery speckle the more staid background. The collarless jacket with bootleg cords and Rick Owens suede boots. The skirt over wool leggings with a few snaps left undone to come off like an old school overskirt. Both trimmed in black leather with hidden prong closure behind their respective plackets, the jacket is lined in black Jasco wool jersey. Skirt has big pockets and a dogleash clasp slightly off to the side, the jacket also has pockets. Made for Sills, the jacket has a literal bust measurement of 40", shoulder to shoulder 15", outer sleeve 22" and length 25". Skirt has a 26" waist is length 29". Excellent condition. $725.00
