Excited doesnt begin to explain how we feel about this fantastic Late 1930s/early 1940s inspired Sports Suit.
Inspired by many examples of the period - especially those produced by famous 1920s/30s leisurewear brand; Janzten. This suit fuses the splendour of our best-selling pleated shorts with the functionality of our land girl blouse to create a comfortable and authentic reproduction play/sports suit.
A great deal of thought has gone into ensuring this playsuit is attractive and elegant yet super practical too. Bodice is shirt style with a simple open collar, classic shoulder yokes with gathers below. Fitted waist band has tucks above to give a flattering blouson silhouette. Back yoke with gathers mirrors this and enables ease of movement. Short sleeves are easy fit and have a turn up.
Shorts are pleated throughout (3 on each side - including the centre front gusset pleat) with helpful side pockets. Front button fastening.
Produced here in our factory using top quality linen from local supplier.
