………………..To create a “TOTAL LOOK” and a total “COLUMN OF BISQUE COLOR” I have created a new jacket……..an EXQUISITE JACKET in the TRENCH COAT FABRIC, A384508. Ladies, this jacket looks like an $800 jacket you would find in Bergdorf Goodman or Neiman Marcus. The Trench fabric TAILORS so beautifully that every seam looks precise, clean and sharp. The collar has the look of a hand steamed back roll that is only done with custom clothes. The INSEAM POCKET looks invisible. The flap is faux as there is no pocket under it………but………it’s the new FEMININE SILHOUETTE, the shorter length, and FOUR BUTTON DETAIL that makes it fresh and new……There is nothing masculine about this jacket….The jacket looks sculpted without being tight. It is the SUBSTANTIAL fabric that creates this beautiful shape. There are body darts, and princess seams that give form to the body of the jacket. The back has princess seams and a center back seam to give that sculptured shape. The jacket has a classic two piece sleeve. There are no buttons on the sleeve so altering the length is a simple procedure. The jacket has a BEAUTIFUL SHOULDER LINE which is crucial to have a jacket hang correctly….You can see in the photos how beautifully the jacket hangs unbuttoned….There is a slight CUT AWAY BOTTOM on this 26 1/2 inch jacket to the FRONT POINT for the SIZE 4. It gets shorted at the side and in the back….The jacket is fully lined in satin…….I can’t say enough about the shape of the COLLAR and LAPEL…..simply SUPERB………This jacket looks so EXPENSIVE…….especially in BISQUE………It looks very couture…..Lighter color jackets need more care when producing. The sewers must constantly wash their hands and keep the machines dust free…………….To coordinate with the jacket is the matching PENCIL SKIRT in the same trench fabric, A384509. It is a classic pencil skirt, and is approx. 24 inches long. The skirt has a flat waist band in front and back with side elastic sections for stretch. There is a back zip and button on the waist band, [look at the column of photos on the right]. What do you wear on your legs with a Bisque short skirt? That depends what you are wearing the skirt with. For a column of color my nude tights are your best option. If you are mixing the Bisque with black or dark grey than my black tights or smoke tights will be perfect………The last solid BISQUE style is a “NEW” SUPER PONTE KNIT SLIM PANT, A384504 for the reg. and A384505 for the petite. The top of the pant has a contour waist and there are triangular side pieces for shape as my other ponte pants. These pants are NUMERICALLY SIZED. The size 4 has a 6 1/2 inch leg opening………….I have now described all of the SEVEN SOLID BISQUE STYLES…….but let me be PERFECTLY CLEAR. There are three different fabrics in the Bisque color…….the WK…..the Jacket and Pencil skirt fabric and the Super Ponte knit…………NONE OF THE DIFFERENT FABRICS are the exact same color. They are slightly different due to many reasons. Firstly the yarns are different, and take dyes differently, the weaves are different, they are made in different factories in different areas of the country, so the fact that they BLEND as well as they do is a miracle in itself. Of course all styles in individual fabrics will match each other. The jacket and skirt will match, and the WK pieces will match……………..In the months ahead you will see novelty fabrics that will coordinate with BISQUE. There is a marvelous TWEED JACKET in Bisque and Dark Grey [which is another BIG DEAL COLOR]. A beautiful matte satin shirt in a small animal print with scarf will also coordinate……Bisque as you can see is a KEY LINEA COLOR for FALL 2020………I know there are some of you who will say Bisque isn’t my color….it will wash me out……..If you heighten your make colors just a bit this color will work for anyone. Bisque, out of all of my similar colors [alabaster, linen etc.], has a pinker undertone than the others………………This is truly a “DESIGNER GROUP” of clothes that I would have done for Anne Klein……..It is for chic, sophisticated women who want to dress in timeless, modern, clean clothes………no gimmicks……………………PURE CLASS…………….enjoy………………..much Love…………………Louis
Hi Louis
I am loving your bisque color and new jewelry.
I noticed you have 2 different style pants in bisque. Besides your new upcoming Super Ponte Slim Pants Reg.A384504 and Petite A384505. There is another style Linea pant in bisque in your popular super ponte pull on straight leg pants Reg. A268216 and Petite A303147. Both of the latter mentioned pants are waitlist only.
Dear Joanne, Yes, there are two style pants in Bisque. When you see that it means they are in the warehouse but have not been fully loaded, so you can order on “wait list”, and when all sizes are loaded they will switch from wait list tom avail and start shipping. Since the shows are on the 18th and 19th they should all be avail then If they are something you are interested in you can either wait or order now.
You have a great memory! I don’t do many prints (except yours) and this tiny animal print may be one that’s hard to resist.
Love this bisque…And, there’s a tweed jacket in bisque and grey? Be still my heart. All just brilliant…
The jacket is a V neck collarless jacket and it’s a beauty….I know you don’t do many prints, but there is a tiny animal print in the Bisque/Grey and Black that looks great with everything
Jazzmom, I assumed when Louis said the new jacket was in the trench coat fabric that it was identical in fabric content to the big deal blazers from last year. Like you, I figure those black pants you referenced, I have them as well, would be a fine match-up.
One more question: Is the new bisque blazer made of the same material as A343162 — blazer –Content: shell 64% polyester/31% rayon/5% spandex? Since I own the black pants in this material, I was thinking of using the bisque jacket over the black pants.
Yes, and Yes the pant should work great. I can promise the blacks will be exactly the same since they were done a while ago. The Plum pant is already listed……it’s the super ponte boot cut.
How close is the bisque color to the alabaster slim pants? (A265615)? I just ordered the WK tank in bisque. Will there be a plum pant coming in that style number (A265615)?
Dear Chris….the bisque is more pink than the alabaster. They look like a miss match to me
No Chris, there will be only one Plum pant….the Super Ponte Boot cut which is avail right now in reg and petite.
Well this color cluster has already exceeded my expectations and I was expecting something wonderful!!!
Exquisite!
Hello Louis, I was wondering what the fabric content of the new pants are? Also are they slim at the ankle? Thank you!
Romy, they are the super ponte which is a rayon/nylon/span blend.
Ooh la la!
