Ice-Cream Suit for Women
The linen ice-cream suit.
Mark Twain made it famous.
Its annual emergence from the American closet has been a welcome event for 150 summers, at least.
The reason it is called an ice-cream suit, of course, is because it is cool, like a refreshing dish of ice cream on a hot day, and invariably vanilla, which is the nation’s favorite ice cream flavor.*
Can you think of a single good reason why the innumerable benefits of wearing an ice-cream suit should be restricted to one-half of the species (i.e., the male half)?
I can’t.
Cool, casual, confident, possibly cocky Ice-Cream Suit for Women, a 1920s men’s suit in substantial linen with a nip here, extra flare there, front buttons moved to the appropriate side.
Double-Breasted Linen Blazer (No. 6439) with wide peak lapels in a seasonally-perfect linen cotton blend. Slim-fit suiting lengthens and slims. Single back vent. Patch pocket at left breast and two front patch pockets at waist. Four faux horn urea buttons down center front, three at each cuff. Lightweight poly viscose lining. Imported.
