As we move into a new century the skirt suit is still going strong. As ever, it is shaped on fashionable lines, but it is noticeably less ornate than the dresses of the same era.
The figure on the left shows a model wearing a jacket made from
McCall's Bazaar Pattern no. 6171 and a skirt from
Pattern no. 6169. The two become a suit by being made up in the same material. The vest is part of the jacket, and is made of the same material as the insertions in the skirt.
At left we have a
Misses' Eton Costume. Except for the length of her skirts this is very like the suits worn by her adult counterparts. At centre is "
an up-to-date coat and skirt costume", the jacket of which "may be composed of material matching the skirt". At right is a
Ladies' costume made of "pebble cheviot in the new gray and black shade".
