Single-button front with a soft shawl-style collar and an easy slightly boxy cut, giving it that strong late-20th-century novelty Americana look. The heavy woven cloth gives it more substance than a lightweight printed piece, which helps the jacket hold its shape well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"493\" data-end=\"509\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"493\" data-end=\"501\"\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"501\" data-end=\"504\"\u003e1980s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"511\" data-end=\"536\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"511\" data-end=\"521\"\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"521\" data-end=\"524\"\u003eBedford Fair\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"538\" data-end=\"756\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"538\" data-end=\"552\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"552\" data-end=\"555\"\u003eGood vintage condition.

The appeal is not subtlety, it is the full commitment to the stars-and-stripes design, done in a thick woven cloth rather than a flat novelty print. That gives it a much stronger presence and makes it feel more like a proper statement jacket than a throwaway themed piece. The cut is also right for it: simple, slightly boxy, and easy to wear, so all the attention stays on the textile. A very good 1980s Americana piece with the kind of visual confidence that makes it memorable on a rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize on garment: N\/A\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur modern sizing estimate: 12                                                                                                         \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShoulders: 16\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBust: 38\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWaist at garment: 38\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInner sleeve: 16\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNape to hem: 23\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition Notes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease be aware. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected.
