This is wonderful, and rare! Owing to their inherent casual nature seersucker suits rarely venture beyond the classic two button closure, and 3/2 sack, but that didn't deter Alan Royce, one of the major Ivy clothiers of Princeton of the Golden Age, from producing this--a wonderful double breasted seersucker suit with peak lapels! I've never seen one of these before, and it's simply wonderful. Cut from classic cream and blue seersucker, which presents with a more subdued, sepia tone that cream and white, which might have been a bit much for a double-breasted, this has a 6 by 1 button closure, and, obviously, the appropriate peak lapels. It has a single centre vent, and is fully lined. The pants are pleated and cuffed.
The jacket has one tiny spot on the sleeve, as shown. The trousers have several similar small spots on the front, as I've attempted to capture in the pictures--since these are small and seersucker tends to have a camouflaging effects they're hard to see, but they are there. They seem to be the remnants of a long-gone garden party cocktail!
This suit is perfectly wearable as a suit, but I'm pricing it as an odd jacket, owing to the spotting on the trousers. It is in overall Very Good condition.
It's a steal at just $49, or offer, boxed and shipped in the USA.
Measurements:
Chest: 22
Sleeve: 24 (+2 1/2)
Shoulder: 19 1/2
Length: 30 5/8
Waist: 18
Inseam: 28 1/4 (+1) with 1 3/4" cuff.
