The looks we think are so mainstream are really only mainstream in relation to where you live. If you travel to other cities in other countries, fashion is not as homogenized as it is now in the States. London is almost like a mini Carribean with its affection for splashes of bright color and France is well, France. And Jamaica is like the soulful 70s with its long, leggy pants and cropped tops. The jeans and black coat look of the American midwest is passe and the low jeans and tank tops of sunny California are tired. And all you have to do to make things seem so different is change the palette. Keep wearing those jeans and high-heeled boots in Chicago but instead of a black coat, try lemon yellow. Be the offbeat New Yorker and trade the black for red and white. Get Bill Cunninghams' attention! A perfect partner for summery faded jeans, this charming Donald Brooks coat will bring your wardrobe into autumn while still showing off a late-summer tan. A super finely woven blue and white cotton and nylon microcheck cut into a military coat with gun patch at the shoulder. Decorative pockets high under the collarbone, this buttons behind the placket with small stainless steel buttons. Pointed back yoke that echoes the cuffs at each wrist, the sliding belt has a round stainless buckle. Lined in cranberry satin, this bears the Boutique label. Bust measures 36", shoulder to shoulder 15", outer sleeve 23.5" and length 46". Excellent condition. $440.00 |
