These pieces of a four piece ensemble (blouse missing) which clearly reflect the "hallmark" of Ms. Cashin's design - a melange of colors, leathers and suedes and the specially loomed tweeds (Scotland, Ireland, England)." Designer's original sketch is shown with the manufactured ensemble. -- Label copy for Suiting the 20th Century Woman, Penthouse Theatre, May 9 to May 16, 1981.
