[SOLD] Vintage Paul Costelloe Tweed Jacket







What: Gorgeous Paul Costelloe (UK designer) classic tweed jacket, made in Ireland, purchased at a consignment store several years ago. I had it tailored (sleeves shortened and waist taken in to give it a more modern shape). It has two pockets on front hip and one inner pocket. Very well made. I'm letting it go because even though I love it, it doesn't really fit in with the rest of my wardrobe.


Material: 100% wool, fully lined (acetate). Beautiful subtle tweed, hard to describe the color-- I see charcoal, plum, brown, and a slate blue color in the flecks. There is a little bit of burgundy leather trim on the pocket flaps.

Meaurements: Shoulder seam to shoulder seam: 16"; pit to pit: 18"; waist: 16 3/4 at the narrowest part; length: 27"; sleeve length: 25"

Size: UK size 12/US size 8, but keep in mind I had it altered a bit.

Condition: Excellent vintage. No stains, tears, or odors.

Asking: $40, including shipping in the U.S.

Listing ends in one week, on October 4th.
