Following the formula of matching solid-color skirt and jacket with a patterned top, this orange suit features a blouse with a self-tie at the neckline. It was a favorite; Her Majesty wore it in the United States and Europe in spring 1960 and for several years afterward in Thailand, altering the hemline as fashion changed.
