Designer-led and rooted in true fashion history, this Jean Muir three-piece set was created exclusively for the renowned Lucienne Phillips boutique in Knightsbridge, one of the most influential fashion destinations of the 1970s. Known for championing international designers such as Hanae Mori and Bill Gibb, Lucienne Phillips pieces carry a level of provenance that elevates them beyond the everyday.
Rendered in a vibrant, saturated green viscose, the set consists of a fluid top, softly draped skirt and coordinating scarf, designed to be worn together or styled apart. A matte gold floral motif is scattered throughout, adding subtle texture and depth without overpowering the clean, elegant lines.
The top falls with Muir’s signature ease, lightly skimming the body, while the skirt moves with a gentle, fluid drape that reflects her mastery of cut and fabric. The matching scarf completes the look, offering styling versatility, worn loose, knotted or draped for a more directional feel.
This is Jean Muir at her most wearable yet considered: pieces that feel effortless on the body but are underpinned by thoughtful construction and design integrity. Worn together, it has a quietly striking presence; styled separately, each element becomes a foundation piece within a modern wardrobe.
There is a small hole at the back of the top, but it does not detract from the overall impression or wearability of the set.
