Vintage Early 1940s Red and White Seersucker Summer Suit

We really love this early 40s suit for the summer!  Lightweight red and white seersucker.  The jacket has short puff sleeves and a longer length (typical of the period) with two patch pockets.  The A-line skirt has a curved inset that created a chevron pattern on the front.  The skirt closes with side snaps.
