I just bought the blistered jacket in koolaid-short/asymetrical zipper. it seemed like it could be worn as a light cardigan/jacket in spring and fall.

GREAT pics seeing the color way. It looks so artistic!
Now we know the leather code, can you tell us the color names as well?
I know, I know.....asking so much, but I really like having the details in this subforum for future reference. It's so helpful to see the colors and leather type together to compare/contrast.
I can't remember who else mentioned this, but could it be from a bag strap?
This happened to me on a Vince paper thin leather jacket that I have.
Alas, the problem with paper thin leather.
Thanks for sharing your memory with us.....it's such a lovely thought and I'm sure you think of your grandmother whenever you sport that beauty.
YES, and I blame mimi as well!!!!

Could you please post pics of you in your vest???
I've been so intrigued by the Kool-aid color, it looks so rich.
LOL - now I kinda "get" the name. Is this the powder color of grape Kool-aid?
I cannot WAIT to find out more about this jacket. I think it's beautiful, especially the cut/drape, etc. Your idea about using it for Spring/Fall looks to be perfect. It appears NOT to have a lining around the collar, and of course the color look delicious. Please let us know your thought and PLEASE post pics too

Thanks I am very excited. I wanted a black version but black tends to make things look very edgy and harsh (yes cool but i am not cool!) and I felt that dark brown or gray would be softer and more seasonless. Also, my one pet peeve about RO is the fabric linings which while sumptuous inside I dont like how they show when unzipped. I like seeing the leather on the return. I am expecting it Tuesday and will let you know!
I love the look of it zipped up. I just think I'm too lazy haha or the fact that I dont exactly live in the windiest, coldest place.
Those are all my RO's but I also have 2 balenciaga leather motos (one in black and one in denim blue
Yes the LG is called dark shadow (med gray)
LB is called is called Dust (light gray)
LS is called DNA Dust (taupe/brown)
I love all all the leathers are so different. I was trying to sell my LG cause I dont need 2 gray jackets but its so different than the other one and its the only one that actually fits over layers to wear in cold weather. The other ones only fit over tanks/shirts. So I may just end up keeping it instead of taking a huge loss
I didnt even think about that. That probably it
Cant wait to see. I love Bronze
So I did some shopping yesterday....
We started out in the RO shop in Mayfair and as I was browsing, who walks in but..... Gareth Pugh and Michele Lamy!!!! I didn't notice them at first but heard the SAs talking to someone saying 'Oh what have you been doing', they said they had just been to lunch at Scott's (fancy restaurant), then the SA says something about how Rick said this, so my ears perk up and I look over and they are standing there. Then they were talking about how they were going to see Rupert Everett in his new play, etc etc. So that was quite exciting.
So I had a look around, it's always nice to see things in person. The tops like this are so beautiful, I wish I could wear them, but I can't go without a bra sadly.

So I asked them what leather vests they had... they had black and a couple of the lighter colours, but I was looking specifically for grey. She told me they didn't do grey this season, which was strange since Selfridges had a grey one online... love it when the SAs make stuff up.... haha
So we went over to Selfridges and they had the vest on display, I tried it on and loved it so decided to get it. It's gorgeous! This is it:

I'll try to take some pics soon. I hope the silk lining will be ok and not too delicate. I wasn't sure at first about the purple tinge to the lining but then realised it was quite nice to have a bit of colour sitting next to your skin like that, it's more flattering than a straight grey I think.
It's still sitting in the Selfridges bag, I am a bit scared to take it out... haha.
And I blame all of this on mimi_glasshouse!!!!
I like it! Its a neutral with a bit of color!
So much to catch up on!!
These jackets are still available online, they have them on NAP, The Corner and Farfetch if you are still interested.....
Thanks for the info....now I have to wait a bit as I ordered a Celine Trapeze
after I was told the jacket was sold out...and the jacket will be available in other color next season ....

LOL
I hear your "blame" but I can also see your smiley faces too...
I don't mind being blamed as long as you find me as GOOD influence...
Modelling pics please
I'm not saying. people get ideas when you post things in this forum and buy what I want! don't want to make it look appealing and covetable until it's in my sweet hands.
Hahahaha. I totally agree!! OMG
