1960s Emerald Italian Wool Blend Mod Jacket 'VIP'

 

There is a cheerful precision to 1960s tailoring that is seems impossible to replicate. This authentic vintage jacket is a perfect example. Crafted from a fine Italian wool blend, the fabric has a smooth and almost felted hand that holds the structure beautifully.

The silhouette is classic mod. It features a charming rounded collar and five fabric-covered buttons that run down the centre front. The cut is gently boxy which allows it to sit neatly at the high hip without clinging. This shape is excellent for adding structure to the upper body while maintaining a clean vertical line.

Style it buttoned all the way up for a polished look with a black pencil skirt as shown. Alternatively, wear it open over a white tee and high-waisted denim for a relaxed weekend outfit. This is sustainable style that is bold yet simple. It is a piece of quality design that feels fresh decades later.
