About this Product
Get your vintage on in my Rescued & Renewed Vintage Denim Jacket.
Denim is the iconic fabric of durability. Not only has denim popularity endured since it was developed by Levi Strauss for those building the railroads, it became fashionable. This jacket is a Northern Territory large boys jacket, the shoulders are wide with a narrower waist (it fits a size 10-12 woman. The sleeves are too long for a petite woman. Well-loved and laundered, with no holes or thread-bare patches.
The embellishment is selections of a vintage table cloth and napkins. Three hand-cut and assembled flowers bloom on the right cuff. the back is two sections of the cloth - one of the greige crocheted corner inserts is partially covered by an embroidered cotton section. Three small flowers were created from the crocheted border, and one large flower again from the cotton embroidered section. This is an eye-catcher. A bit vintage; a bit modern.
This jacket should be dry-cleaned or hand-washed. Machine wash and dry at your own risk. The flowers will most probably be damaged by the agitating of the washer, and most definitely by the tumbling and heat of the dryer.
See the photo illustration for jacket measurements.
TRECE Designs
Meet the Maker
Hey Y'All, I am Teresa, or Trece, to my family and friends. I count you among them!
Creativity is within us all, no matter education or age. Remember playing as a child? Spending hours making up stories and playing them out? That's creativity. My love affair with imagination began when my cousins and I would play dress-up. We were blessed with a large trunk of gorgeous and grown up dresses, hats, gloves, shoes, and jewelry - treasures from the grown-up girls we called Mom, Aunt, and Grandma. That trunk provided us with hours of creative play. I loved the large, often gaudy baubles that we draped around our necks and wrists. The clip on earrings hurt our young ears, but were essential to complete our ensembles.
I am so thankful for that trunk. It didn't need electricity or batteries. It didn't make noise or come with instructions. The contents of that trunk were both used and old, precious and beautiful. The creative playtime soothed my young soul and set a fire in my heart for finding beauty in a flat fold of fabric, in a slab of wax, in copper washers and pipe. For taking the simple form, the functionless, and creating beauty. I hope you enjoy what you see here. Come on, go ahead. Play a little dress-up of your own. It's good for the soul. Trece
