It features a rich eggplant purple color of cotton linen blend with slubs, functional fabric buttons, pointed collar, 3/4 length sleeves, removable shoulder pads and faux pockets. The skirt is straight, fully lined, with side metal zipper and button and a kick pleat on the back. The perfect Mrs. Maisel suit!
