How to describe fabric on this 2pc set

Hi everyone! Am finally back from my month long trip to New England and I guess I need to start doing some work. I got a bunch of nice stuff, but I've just been staring at the piles since I got home. Can't seem to get motivated. Oh well, anyway....

found this two piece 50s outfit that I'm pretty sure is wool. I'm just having trouble describing the fabric type. Would I call this a wool jersey knit? It's very soft and smooth, medium weight and has a little stretch to it.

The only label says "modelo registrado" which I think is Spanish. Not sure what that's about. But there is a metal talon zipper in the skirt, which I thought meant it was made in the US. :puzzled:

Any thoughts?

P.S. Please excuse my crappy photoediting. I've been practicing taking out my backgrounds and I still haven't mastered it yet!

Thanks
Theresa

Jonathan, that's a good point. I never thought about the possibility of it being Mexican made. I guess because of it being wool and I've only ever seen the tourist stuff from there. The size tag says 44.

I'm guessing it's around a 6 or 8.

It's got all this tiny pearl beading on it too, that looks great against the black.
