Our expert's notes

Margaret Thatcher’s (Meryl Streep) blue jacket and skirt from Phyllida Lloyd’s period drama The Iron Lady. This costume was worn when Thatcher was left reeling after the assassination attempt by the Provisional IRA at the Conservative Party conference in Brighton.
The suit is comprised of a single-breasted Jane Law jacket (labelled “Meryl Streep”) and matching floor-length skirt, both of which are made of blue silk with blue lining. The jacket features two small faux pockets with four striped buttons down the front as well as boning within the jacket to help it maintain its form. The skirt is fastened with a zip and clasp at the side. Made specifically for Streep in her Oscar® winning role of Thatcher, the suit has no sizes marked. The costume remains in very good condition.
