Its richly textured surface combines spearmint with delicate threads of raspberry, coral, blush pink, lilac, ochre, cream and soft green, creating colour and dimension that reveal themselves differently in changing light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNine spearmint fabric-covered buttons fasten through discreet loops, arranged in three carefully spaced groups of three. Small front pockets, gently curved edges and three covered buttons at the back of each cuff complete the beautifully considered design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe coordinating skirt is cut in a plain spearmint woven fabric, allowing the intricate jacket to remain the focus. It has a side zip and two fabric-covered buttons with loops at the waistband.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth pieces are fully lined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElegant, distinctive and exceptionally difficult to replicate, this is a wonderfully wearable example of AnnaBelinda’s imaginative British design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy I love this\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colours in this jacket are quite extraordinary. From a distance it appears softly spearmint, but close up it reveals a tapestry of pink, lilac, coral, ochre and green yarns. The matching skirt gives it all the presence of a complete occasion suit, while the jacket could also be worn separately with silk trousers, denim or a simple dress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMixed fibres; no composition label present\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLikely late 20th century\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJacket\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoulder to shoulder: 16\" \/ 41 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBust: 40\" \/ 102 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleeve length: 23\" \/ 58.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJacket length: 20\" \/ 51 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkirt\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaist: 32\" \/ 81 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHips: not fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 31\" \/ 79 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements are taken with the garments laid flat where appropriate.
