1990s Geoffrey Beene Suit with Applique designer-hardy-amies Lots of couture level details

Lots of couture level details - like the tissue silk chiffon lining that feels like nothing else when you wear it

I have seen many the Mongolian fur jackets but to find one that is a bubble gum shade of pink is something else

Note that it appears red in the pictures - it is actually a deep cherry pink

A second layer of silk is set from the neckline so it acts like a romantic

Based on a classic caftan this pairs light cotton with a linen like finish with pink

1990s Geoffrey Beene Suit with Applique designer-hardy-amies Lots of couture level detailsThis is a fantastic suit from Geoffrey Beene and shows his love of sharp geometric shapes and love of adding pops of color onto a black base. The skirt is fitted and lean and the jacket has a strong silhouette that skims the torso and goes down and over the hip. The neck is high and all the closures are hidden so that you get this fantastic unbroken line. Onto the jacket are two abstract triangles of color that are top stitched a green on the front
