Ok wow, this piece is so epic...it instantly caught my eye and captured my heart and I know it will have the same effect on you!
From afar it looks like leather, get closer and it looks like vinyl, then touch it...it's soft, supple, flexible...like a lighter-weight rubber but not quite like the PVC of some vintage raincoats.
It's a fabulous fabric with an even better color...just like the photos!
Pearlescent pastel green with an all-over glow that will surely get heads to turn in your direction.
It has a wide floppy triangular collar, a sweeping A-line silhouette, a single interior button, and one cool silver-tone exterior button closure.
The buttonhole stitches are a bit worn and wavy/misshapen as a result, but when buttoned it's a nonissue.
Another unusual thing to note is the placement of the pockets. They are within a side seam as you can see, but this side seam is set further back on the frame than is standard, so to have your hands in the pockets pulls the jacket forward and slightly taught across the back shoulders. You can see this in the side view modeled shot. Again, not really a flaw or big issue, just a nuance of the piece.
I believe this was handmade or custom-made as it's so unusual, I mean just check out that incredible lining!
All hems are finished and secure to the shell, there are small soft padded shoulders but with the attached lining these will be hard to remove unless you go in through a seam.
Leave them be, they look great and arent over the top. Aside from the buttonholes, this is in clean, excellent condition and really appears nearly unworn.
Truly a one of a kind find!
