FACILITY Ease in performance:
Vera Maxwell is best known for combining form and function in modular separates responsive to the active personal and professional lives of women. The trousers and top of this suit are made of wool jersey, favored for its elastic and wrinkle-resistant properties. The jacket of wool tweed, lined at the front opening with coordinating jersey, is cut with fullness in the body and sleeves for ease and mobility. Its conspicuous patch pockets, lined with plastic, were designed to hold necessities for an overnight flight— cosmetics, a toothbrush, toothpaste, and a washcloth.
