Do you have picture of the garment itself?

Actually,
Tahari started in 1974 - and so did the barcode! Is that a skirt, a skort or shorts on the hanger? I don't remember early - mid-'70s long coats and short skirts but that doesn't mean anything, and of course it could be more recent. Are there any more labels and/or a care label? Does it fit/measure like a current size 6 or is it larger?
We have one entry about Tahari in the VFG Label Resource:

This set is early 2000s when the no waist short skirt was in style. No earlier. And the fabric is a give away.

The Nordstrom tag is also a clue: https://vintagefashionguild.org/label-resource/nordstr/
That's the style of font they used from 1981 to 2019. To me, this looks like a 1990s piece. It's quite interesting, with that long jacket and short skirt—and the fabric looks beautiful.

Cross-posted with Suzanne. We're getting there!

Agree the skirt style is late 80s into the early 90s. The price of 88.00 seems very inexpensive for a Tahari suit (or even just the jacket) even for that time frame.

I recall this style being popular early 90s...

I still say it is later because the 90s still had waist bands on the skirts.
It makes me think of this song, which came out in 2001.
I stand corrected... the Tahari website states the label was started in 2001, but it seems that is wrong 
?
Still, I agree with Suzanne there, if that is a skirt, the mini skirt with no waistband is a newer style. Late 90s to early 00s was when these no-waistband skirts were suddenly everywhere. I hated them, as it so doesn't work if you actually have a waist and hips

It is a skirt with about 1/4” waistband. The skirt has the size 6 tag on it and it’s about a 26” waist and 36” hip, so I would definitely say a newer (last couple decades) size 6. I was trying to decide between 90’s or 2000’s.
The fabric content says 38% acetate, 34% acrylic and 28% wool. Made in the u.s..a.
