Burgundy satin blazer and wrap skirt with a black mesh top

A burgundy satin blazer and matching wrap skirt with a long diagonal hem, worn open over a black mesh top, against a brick loft window.

A burgundy satin blazer with notched lapels and a single hidden fastening, worn open to the waist with the sleeves pushed to the elbow, over a black mesh top with a round neck and a black bandeau beneath it. The skirt matches the blazer: burgundy satin wrapped and tied at the waist, the front panels crossing to a long diagonal hem that opens into a high slit when she moves.

It is suiting with the jacket and skirt made of the same liquid fabric, so the whole thing moves like one piece. Spring or autumn nights, dinner or a bar with brick walls, a pointed black heel and no tights. Button the blazer and it becomes a dress; leave it open and it's a two-piece with an opinion.

Satin this colour is a commitment. I signed it in daylight and regretted nothing.
