I can't help myself! Just ordered the calf leather one as I saw the blistered leather one is gone !!!

Thanks for your the advice !

Oh goodie - we need "deets" upon arrival!

 

[dcblam]

Can anyone authenticate this jacket? I really need(want) this jacket. Perfect for the cold weather here.

Thanks!

We don't have info on the actual code LSHH, but we know about LSH which is shearling lamb and I believe from your photos that it's shearling inside?

I'm not an expert, the photos are not really crisp, but I would lean towards it being the real deal. Can it be returned?

Yay! I don't think you will regret it. And I also don't think it will be too shiny, that's probably just the photo.

I've just done some comparing with my dark dust shearling that I'm wearing today. It's the exact same style. The differences I notice are that the zipper is exposed which it isn't on mine, I don't have anything stamped on the bottom bit of the back side of the zip, my code is LSH and mine doesn't have the Palais Royal thing printed on the tag. I got mine from NAP. These things don't necessarily mean it's fake though, it could just be a different style. Though the pics aren't that clear the leather still looks nice. Is this listed on eBay? Maybe who is selling it could give you more clues.

Will be interested to hear if the shine is really that shiney -- I find that some of the leathers photo differently than they are in real life. It may not be that shiny at all ....

Debi -- I have wondered about that RO bag -- at one point Saks had those at less than 1/2 price and I am still kicking myself for not buying one.

Sorry I am so slow on the extra fur pics -- work has been insane and I got lost in airline ticketing hell for a whole night. Who needs to know all those things about a flight? No one should have as many choices as I did between NY and New Mexico ....

The bag arrived, it's really nice, but... too big The leather is great, really soft and lush, and there are lots of really useful pockets inside. But it just swamps me, and I don't need that much space so it would be barely half full most of the time. But for someone that carries lots of stuff around all the time it could be a great bag. Still waiting on the Gareth Pugh, the UPS man has yet to arrive..... This is the GP one http://www.thecorner.com/gb/women/large-leather-bag_cod45183393fj.html

Yes, it is so difficult to see how the leather looks like in real life from those images.

The SKU # for this jacket is RP 9708 LTO 009.

I tried to find some pics online and there is only one I can find from Farfetch as above

How you girls find the leather ? Will it be too shiny???

I'm sure it won't be too shiny, it's probably just the bright lighting that makes it look like that in that photo.

My black one is calf from FW11/12 and I think the leather is amazing, I love it. Though mine was £1500 not £1100 so maybe there are different types of calf... or maybe I just got ripped off. haha. Actually I've just looked closely at yours and the leather is more textured than mine, so maybe that is the difference.

Mine also looked shiny in the photo but I don't think it's shiny in real life.

You will love it don't worry!

It has arrived!

I'll try to get some better pictures of it soon -- as it is SO much fun to style!
First surprise -- it is HEAVY. The lamb interior (which can be the exterior -- completely reversible) lines the entire piece except the arms. The hood is fully lined, not just the collar area.
You can puff the hood up so that the fur stands tall on the neck -- you can pop your head all the way in, then fold the hood like an attached hat. The only downside I can see in the piece is that the arms are sweatshirt material -- so a little cold for weather when you'd wear the fur so ... I'm off to find a really good tissue thin black turtleneck. Or maybe arm muffs?
I can imagine taking this on any cold weather trip and using it as a blanket on the plane. The fur is yummy -- darker grey towards the hide, lighter on the tips. And it has pockets.

On another note -- I sent back the mohair and leather piece -- shoulders just too tight/strange fit. They sent me one size up and that fit in the arms but again, shoulders just wonky. So that is going back. With this lamb baby in my wardrobe, I don't really feel like I need much else except great boots, gloves and some leggings, seriously.

More pictures to come. And yes, my hair is really that color.

Wow, I love your hair! I forgot about a jacket, I keep looking at your beautiful hair!

So, any chance that the SKU could end in LBO instead of LTO???
I only ask because LBO is boxed calf leather and your jacket looks like boxed leather. AND, it will not be too shiny.

It looks like the covering for the zipper was flipped back in the picture. I probably should request clearer pictures. This jacket was purchased in Paris so I'm wondering if that could be a reason for the little differences?

I think I saw the Gareth Pugh this weekend -- really nice leather if so!

I did see a smaller version of the Rick bag in a matte, aged kind of leather -- it was very rectangular -- felt like stuff was going to get lost in the corners.

 

[jenskar]

Thank you Marina for the hair compliment !

As promised a few extra pictures -- I'm not sure where the brown undertones are coming from -- have not noticed that.

The fur shots are it laying opened up, sideways, if that makes sense

Wore it this weekend -- it was pretty warm with the hood up

Does anyone know if it's cheaper to buy RO in Europe vs. the US? I'm heading to Paris tonight and would love to get a jacket there.
