For someone so prolific and popular at the time, Gerald McCann's work still remains incredible rare. Perhaps because his speciality was wearable daywear with a clean, sportswear influenced line (which meant he was one of the most popular exports to the USA). This skirt suit is from the mid-Sixties and is a stunning example of McCann's signature loosely cut and tailored style, very few of which turn up today! The boxy jacket is softened by the rounded shoulders which give a great silhouette. The placement of the vertical pockets is also well done and a very classic example of British tailoring. The collar is intended to button and therefore stand up, but this button has gone walkabout at some point. The collar does look lovely down as well, but I'm sure a similar plain black button (or even a brooch) would do the trick because I love the way it looks when it's stood up like that!
