……………………..The April 10 prime time show was stacked with exceptional pieces. Starting at the top is a cotton sateen stretch jacket and skirt, both in a wonderful graphic floral print. The jacket was short with a 3/4 sleeve. The lined jacket had very large black or green poker chip buttons sewn on with white thread. The jacket had princess seams that ended at the inset band pockets. The back had an invert pleat just to make it interesting! The short skirt had a simple back zip with an elastic back waist band…….The coordinating tank was in rayon jersey in Blue, Spring Green, Black and White. It had piped armholes and a scoop neckline. At the bottom of the scoop was shirring to add softness and give the tank a more feminine detail…..The bottom blouse at the far left was in cotton/nylon with a very wide sheer organza yoke. The yoke was then appliqued with narrow strips of the self cotton/nylon fabric. The shirt had a button placket front and short half raglan sleeves, A little shirt with lots and lots of exacting detail that needed to be sewn perfectly! It came in Black, White and Red. I believe the organza stayed white on all the colors……The next dress was  Jac’s uniform. Jac loved these Linen/Rayon blend woven dresses with the ORGANZA sheer inserts. It had inseam pockets and came in Pink Coral and Black………….The next jacket was in what I called the woven “LIFESAVER” jacquard. The fabric was Cotton and Poly. The circles were raised which gave the jacket texture and lots of interest. It had a funnel collar and a button front. The buttons were covered in the self fabric. All of the jackets in the White, Hot Pink and Blue had White facings in the collar down the fronts. and the turn back cuff to make it fresh looking……The jacket had body seams for a body skimming shape and was fully lined.. This jacket will never go out of style. and it will also look chic and sophisticated.
