A classic riding suit design from the 1890's. A two piece set that allowed the wearer to have individual pant legs for a functional way to ride a horse, but has a convertible front panel to cover the pant legs and appear as a skirt. Also referred to as a split skirt, it provided function and fashion. Jacket is double breasted with a built in waist belt. Puff shoulder with tucked pleats. A single button is missing on the bottom right of the skirt. No manufacturer label.

PLEASE NOTE: When purchasing vintage and/or secondhand clothing please pay attention to the measurements listed in the description. These pieces may have been altered or the sizing may not be equivalent to modern sizing. I do not take returns if the item does not fit. I always list measurements and if additional measurements are needed please ask.
The beauty of most vintage garments is the whole life it lived prior to purchase - therefore, it is rarely, if ever, in mint condition. Please consider this when purchasing.
