1940s Rare Liquid Silk Satin Copper Suit designer-scott-barrie The skirt also falls onA really special forties suit that is super rare and hard to find! The color is amazing it's a rich, luxe copper with an almost deep undertone of pink to it. Made of thick silk satin it is just amazing! You normally see this fabric in gowns that take advantage of the weight of the fabric to create deep draping effects but here some clever designer has used it in high contrast and made it structured! The skirt is of a length typical of the time period
