I kept waiting and waiting for my fave on line fabric retailers to offer the fabric I had in mind, and now a year has passed! I finally found what I wanted (though paid dearly). I love the look of this suit – refreshingly modern. I’ll be posting as I complete the ensemble, and I started with the easiest piece, the top. The hem hangs evenly on me.
