DAVID GAINES 1940s Gabardine Check Two Tone Suit • Sm/Med

CHECK MATE
A striking suit straight out of the film noir era. The jacket features a bold check pattern with contrasting blue collar, pockets, and cuffs. Its single double-breasted closure and strong shoulders create that  1940s silhouette.

The straight skirt complements it perfectly, designed with 3.5" slits at the front and back and a side metal zipper. Both pieces are perfectly tailored.
