Vintage Clothing GIVEAWAY . .

I mentioned on twitter recently that I was de-cluttering my vintage wardrobe and couldn't think of a better way to do this than to launch another giveaway!

Up for grabs and PERFECT for spring is this beautiful deep rust orange vintage three-quarter length linen jacket by TARA for Z. Victory Paris. I've tried researching the label but have had very little luck. From what I gather, it was a collection by Tara Jarmon dated approximately 1980's *but I might be completely wrong*..(if anyone can enlighten me, please do so!)!


The jacket is 100% linen in a fab rusty orange colour and features an asymmetric military style wooden button fastened front, padded shoulders, mandarin collar and a split up the back. Cuffs feature matching buttons (although one is broken (see close-up image of cuff)). The lining has a couple of little tears, but these are easily serviceable and out-of-view!

The label states it is a size 38 but would suit a UK size 8-10.

Measurements whilst laid flat and completely fastened are as follows:

armpit to armpit: 18 inches

Waist: 15.5 inches

Shoulder to hem: 34 inches

In all this is a super-amazing beautiful jacket with a perfect fit, fantastic for Spring walks and summer evenings.

This giveaway is WORLDWIDE! If you like the look of this beautiful spring coat, all you need to do is follow me either here on the blog, twitter or facebook and tell me what you would team this jacket up with, it's really that simple!

The giveaway will run until midday on the 31st March *14th April (GMT), where I will narrow answers down to my favourite ensembles, and then I'll use a random number generator to pick a winner from the faves!

Good luck and don't forget if you're not a blogger user, please let me know where you're following and how I can contact you if you win!

*Please note, this giveaway has been extended until 14th April 2011 due to technical difficulties my end which are out of my control! This gives you all an additional TWO weeks to get your entries in! Sorry for any inconvenience. Good luck! x
