Red Green Floral Suit

In a surprisingly short skirt for Pakistan, Diana imitated the country's flag in this red, green & white outfit. The jacket is a short waisted, short sleeved light-weight summer one with a scooper neck and four buttons down the front. It has the look of an outfit Diana made by throwing a red jacket over the skirt from this floral 2-piece floral dress.

The hat has a rope of braided red and green ribbons trailing down the back, picking up colours from the skirt. The jacket with elbow length sleeves & bright brass buttons looks like a nice cool choice for what was probably a hot day.

There are several elements required to make a good replica here. Key are the scale of the flowers and colour in the print of the skirt and the right red of the jacket, but there is also the right green in the hat, the right round shape of the hat, the scoop of the jacket neckline, the size, number and spacing of the buttons. The jacket hem is relatively short bodied and the sleeves just to the elbow rather than three-quarter.
