Also to add,she was so well off apparently she "forgot" she even had all this stuff .that's why it got auctioned off.
Now I don't know about you but if I had that kind of swag in my locker that's something in would keep on top of.
And why was it even in a locker ...hmmmmmm

What's that and where's that? I'm definitely interested.

The pants section brethren,the pants section .

1. Correct, but can be worn as a separate too. 2. No signs of wear at all. Though it was clearly tailored (functioning buttonholes, etc.)

This exact thing happened to me for my first post here two years ago. I found an orphaned RLPL chalk stripe jacket. I thought it was amazing, but everyone told me it was an orphan. Then, someone said to go back and find the pants, which I did find.

But you’re auctioning off an orphan RLPL, and it’s doing pretty well so far.

Also, glad you finally have an eBay store.

Looks like an orphan. Specifically, an Anthony.

Point is, there’s a market for orphans.

Nice find! I found an N Peal cashmere sweater in my size at a church thrift last year, super nice, very heavy...its like wearing a damn cashmere sweatshirt. I've heard of 4-ply cashmere but this thing has got to be 10-ply (if that's even a thing).

Nice find! Most of the first batch of those that N.Peal produced back in 2019 had to be returned because they completely screwed up the shoulder patches. That's one of them. You can tell by counting the number of ribs along the collar line between the edges of the patches and comparing it to the poster sweater.

The boat neck with the drawstring is a feature Daniel Craig wanted to make the sweater look old school. Really surprised one of those is out in the thrifts already. If you need help selling it, DM me. I know lots of fans who would be interested (not looking for anything for myself. Just folks helping folks).

This is from the era when Banana Republic had one store in Mill Valley, north over the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco.

It had a safari theme, with life sized stuffed animals like giraffes and zebras. And tusks.

They got the whole Indiana Jones vibe and made the most of it, before selling the company to The Gap.
