It is a classic and easy feeling piece that still feels fresh and fabulous now. It is very rare to find the full set.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn the late seventies and into the eighties this caftan\/tunic and pant look was at an all time high and many of the top designers of the day designed options for their clients who wanted the look but still wanted to wear their favourite brand name. This one is a great example of that.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOscar was a master with cut and colour and this set has both.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth pieces are made out of a fine silk that has a secondary floral pattern woven through the silk. Onto that is a design done in a matching silk cording.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe tunic completely unbuttons down the front so you can wear it layered over other pieces to act as an ultra light evening coat. It is perfect to be worn as a chic day or evening dress if you dare to wear it alone with the high front slit. And of course it perfectly pops over the matching pants for a chic evening pajama feel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe silk is feather light and this lets it flows around you when you move or the slightest breeze hits it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor added detail he used a matching coral cord embroidery to edge the neck and then run down the front. There is more cording at each cuff.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe tunic has long sleeves that taper down to the wrist slightly. The shoulders have a very light padding for shape and then it falls from there over the body widening out gently as it nears the hem. When you are standing still it settles perfectly about you but when you move you really get the sense of movement because of the slit at the front.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe pants have wide straight legs and an easy fit around the hip. The waist has a small band in the same silk.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnlined and the tunic buttons down the front and has decorative buttons at each cuff. Light padding in the shoulders. The easy cut should allow it to fit a range of sizes. The colour has a slightly more pastel feel in person. There is one mark on the pant that is up toward the hip, so completely hidden when the tunic is worn over it.
