You\'ve got to love a suit.....

....that comes with a matching cape!

See the buttons under the collar? That's how you attach the cape.

1950's Rothmoor tweed suit with matching cape at Couture Allure.

Tiny waists be damned!

That's gorgeous... Sigh...

Wow.

When I see a suit that distinctive it makes me wish even more that I were employed so I could wear it to work.

Fantastic find, Jody. And I love that soft, heathered oatmeal look.

So fabulous!

It's so beautifully tailored. The cape has a side panel that is seamed to match the curve of the sleeve-armhole seam so it fits just right. I love the drama of it.

LOVE it.

Ohhhhh pretty!


I recently acquired a very similar outfit, and - although I couldn't see this when I bought it for some reason - it has a Lilli Ann label! Pics someday...

Half the reason I opened a b+m!!

Love the colour Jody. Caped suits are definitely the way to go!
