@magicmoodz Thanks for the information about the white suit. I think that must account for the difference in color. It's still so beautiful, she wears it very well.

On my screen the pants appear to be a shade darker than the jacket? Maybe an optical illusion!


@magicmoodz  I thinik that could be due, in part, to the lining of the jacket and not the pants.  Notice the sleeves of the jacket, which do not appear lined, seem to be the same color as the pants.  

 

@Yes, I agree @ECBG that the coat does appear clamped or has a rubber hair band on the underside of the back of the jacket.

I just had to find the details on this suit in case I need to purchase it for any upcoming holiday parties. Haha!

 

Interestingly enough, these pieces are separates and not even the same fabric. The jacket is described as silk tuxedo while the pants are stretch wool. I wonder if this makes them not a perfect match in color? 

 

I am not really into tonal dressing. Either garments have to perfectly match each other or contrast one another. 


@magicmoodz  I think I would want to see it in situ.  "silk tuxedo?"  Sounds like a poly gabardine type fabric and the stretch wool sounds like a poly faux wool stretchy fabric that would have a more casual look.  JMHO.  It might be perfect but I dunnooooo.

Your new coat is beautiful!

 


@TennisCaptain  That is a gorgeous coat.  Not cute, not pretty, but gorgeous and glamorous.

The jacket and pants look like different shades of white on my screen as well.  I love the suit, but don't like how the colors appear different (if, in fact, they are).
