80s Women's Jacket Bomber Style Black Leather Dramatic Vintage Cropped Large VFG
Fab jacket for those who love extreme 80s fashion! Blouson style bodice with wide lapels and padded shoulders topped by epaulettes. Dramatic dolman sleeves, pleated near the shoulders and cuffed at the wrists. The lower part of the bodice is attached to a wide fitted band of leather that hugs the upper hips, a “girdle” for want of a better word. Lots of interesting seaming and angles, several small pockets.
Size: Labeled L. Measurements are challenging and somewhat flexible due to the design.

I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
