Vintage Black Velvet Jacket – Tailored Three-Button Blazer with Bound Lapels and Patch Pockets
Description
A tailored vintage jacket in black velvet, with wide notched lapels and a three-button front. Narrow tonal binding follows the lapels, front edges and curved hem, and finishes the openings of the two rounded patch pockets.
The shaped seams give the jacket definition through the waist. Dark lining and button detailing at the cuffs complete the look.
