This is a fabulous short suit set by Moschino, dating to around the late 1990s. The jacket has a lapel effect design highlighted with red silky ribbon detail, and padded shoulders to add structure to the overall silhouette. The main fabric is a bold black and white monochrome stripe design, with a front closure featuring three heavy gold buttons with a central cross and surrounding ‘C’ motif - short for 'chic'. The inside of both the shorts and the jacket are lined in a cream acetate and rayon blend, making them cool and comfortable for the wearer. The jacket has two false pockets, trimmed with red ribbon just like the lapels, and the shorts are cut in a classic hotpant style, with a horizontal monochrome waistband. Both garments are labelled as a UK 10 or US 8, but would best suit a size UK 8-10 or US 4-6. In fabulous vintage condition - the suit looks barely worn with no issues.
