About MeMade by the ladies tailor Pratt and Keith, this suit features a single breasted longline loose fitting jacket with pointed lapels and slightly asymmetrical opening. The ankle length A-line skirt is slightly gathered at the back, and smooth at the front with a vertical tuck creating a wrapover effect. Pratt and Keith was a familiar landmark on Union Street. In its heyday the store employed over 200 members of staff in its furs, mantles, millinery and costume departments, as well as in the workrooms where garments were fitted and altered. For such a large store we have very few items in the collection.
