This Jacket is a Political Statement


Came upon this outstanding vintage blazer...



I think the buttons are plastic, but still nice. I'd like to see them replaced.


100% camel hair. The real deal.


Made for Neiman-Marcus.


There's one of the only political statements I will make on this blog. Right there.


Oooh, nifty...


Over blocks.

  3. P.S. You can find leather buttons at a fabric or notions shop and have them replaced by a tailor or dry cleaner who does repairs.
    Cheers!

  4. Amazing! The jacket hits all the right notes and you're correct, the buttons are an easy thing to fix.

  6. @RulingPart Indeed it is.

    @ATH Thanks. I am now following you on tumblr.

    @Bitsy Good to know! It's definitely on the list...

    @Terri It's incredibly warm, too. Not a summer jacket in the least, but good for late fall, winter, and early spring...

    @Plami It is, which is why I snapped it up.

  8. It's gorgeous. I love that 'union made' was used as a quality label! It still should be. It would make my heart go pitter patter for sure.
