Hey so the jacket from Black Celebration arrived magically after tracking said it was still in customs. :nodding: Seems like it's a nice weight for the moderate weather where I'm at. Kinda unsure on how to shape the collar unless I do it all the way up though. I guess it will have to look much like the shop pics

If I'm wearing a collared shirt I usually leave the collar of the jacket up, but with tees/sweaters I fold it down. Looks good either way imo.

e: Prefer to wear it with the collar folded down, though, highlights the pseudo-scarf liner better.

I think a size up would look good, but I like it as is too. Is that the size 3 that was in B&S?


Ya, i'd be swimming in a IV and I'd prolly flip it immediately

Thanks guys, a little internet validation goes a long way. Still not 100% on it, simply because this is a tricky piece to wear and I don't have a complete wardrobe for it yet. Gonna wear it around the house for a bit haha

See, I told you guys sized down wouldn't look terrible!

You could probably wear it with sweats and it'd look fine.

Still looks like a hooded sweater imo. I've only worn mine twice, and every time it feels more and more like a glorified hoodie, rather than a jacket.
