Hi ladies, I've got a question. Normally I would look through this thread to try and find the answer but it's 300 pages long so hopefully someone can help me out. I really want this jacket but only in the silver zippers. Am I right in assuming, though, that Balenciaga no longer make the new seasons' jackets with silver zippers, only the black ones?

TIA!

The jackets for spring 2010 are mixed, with several having brass zippers, at least one having dark silver, but none having bright silver that I'm aware of. You might look for a beige jacket from fall 2009 or a jacket from a previous year if you want bright silver zippers. I'm not sure we know yet what the hardware will be for fall jackets. Hope this helps.

^^thank you, yes it does help! The combo I'm really hoping to get one hands on is the black/bright silver hardware one. Fingers crossed that they'll be doing it for fall. I think I might pop into the Paris boutique and enquire about it...

Sorry I haven't read this thread for a couple of days. I have a 2010 black with brass HW in size 38 and the measurements are exact to the ones you posted!

Hi again,

I am getting a little paranoid here and I hope you ladies can help me out :confused1:

As you know I received my black with brass hw jacket from DF Wednesday and I love it.
My first thought was it looked smaller than the Canard I had and returned, but I just figured it was the black color that made it look that way.

I havent really had a chance to try it on again since, because I have been so busy but today I took it out of the dustbag and measured it and it really is smaller! Also smaller than the 2009 navy in size 38 lovelygarments was so sweet to measure in the style-reference post.

Can any of you ladies who own a 2010 jacket in size 38 do me a favour and measure it for me?

Here are measurements for mine:

underarm to underarm across the front - 42 cm - 16-1/2"
underarm to underarm across the back - 43 cm - 17"
mid-waist - 36 cm - 14"
hem - 39 cm - 15-1/4"
shoulder to shoulder - 37 cm - 14-1/2"
sleeve length - 64 cm - 25"
length measured from buttom of back collar - 50 cm - 19-1/2"

Just sharing that it was 38 degrees this morning! Pulled my jacket out of the dust bag and wore her with a pair F&B Emmas in Red that I scored last week. :cloud9:Ahhh...what a nice day. Temperature goes back up tomorrow!

Thanks NYCavalier, Bagsnshoofetish, mntncat, and Susieserb! I have been letting my hair grow out. I never should have cut it! :amuse:

Today it is the 70's and will be 90 tomorrow so I might be done with my jacket. I put her away last night, but not too far out of reach.
