I’d been on the hunt for a funky retro suit for a while so when I saw this checkered beauty in an online vintage shop I just had to snap it up:
Whoa! Those shoulder pads are insane, the fit of the jacket is, erm, questionable and the trousers were in need of a new zipper, whew!
An awesome result! Head on over here and take a peek at the tute behind my thrifted 80s suit refashion + how to replace a trouser zip.
I love the shorter cap-ish sleeve on the after. Very nice!

ReplyDeleteI'd go for both: suit AND contents (despite the fact that you've 'stolen' my pink socks ?) :-D !!!
LG, Gerlinde
It's amazing what a big change a little sleeve shortening can make!
