BLUE CHIP DRESSING!
THE COVER & CONTINENTAL SUITS
Our color theme continues today for the Barbie® Sapphire 65th Anniversary Celebration!
The “ladies who lunch” is a phrase often used to describe well-off, well-dressed women who meet for social luncheons at exclusive clubs or restaurants, usually during the working week. Ladies arrive in tailored form-fitting “cover suits” often made from rayon and acetate with tweedy texture. With three pieces, the most important silhouette is the jacket’s “focal point” collar! A matching side-zipper pencil skirt, cotton pettipoint blouse and gloves complete the look.
To impress important business clients, the gentleman’s new “continental look”, features one- to three-button coats with narrower lapels and neckties; accessorized with tie tacks and matching cufflinks.
And yes, everyone still wore…a HAT!
*Dress for the theme suggestion: Come dressed in your favorite BLUE color 1964-inspired suit, similar Barbie® or Ken® fashion suit, a member of the restaurant staff, or something unique in your favorite shade.
