Vintage United Colors of Benetton Quilted Barn Jacket in Red




*posted on behalf of Kay*


Absolutely stunning red barn jacket from United Colors of Benetton in amazing condition. No tears, rips, stains or anything anywhere. Has matching hued red corduroy trim around collar, trim on ends of sleeves and on tops of patch pockets, and snap buttons in front. There is a tag on the inside, however it's too faded to read - see measurements below for accurate fit. Great lightweight jacket perfect for spring days, and would layer very well once the weather got cooler, too. Asking $30 shipped within the US.

Pit to pit - 20.5"
Length from center back neck seam to hem - 24"
Sleeve from top of shoulder to hem - 19"

United Colors of Benetton Jersey Dress

It doesn't look fitted in the photo but the waist is true and it gives nice shape.










About the item:
This easy-to-wear, plum-coloured jersey dress was bought on sale at Sisley (sister to Benetton) though the label indicates it is Benetton brand. I was drawn in by its excellent shade (flattering on anyone) and its lovely kick pleat / bust detailing. It's perfect for work or play - comfortable to move in, yet chic.

Why I'm willing to say goodbye: It's never fit quite right in the shoulders for me. I have a very narrow frame with boobs and the fabric isn't clinging quite the way I'd like it to. Perhaps I should have got a small (but there wasn't one). I could have it tailored but, truthfully, I've worn it twice and, given all my other clothes, it just hasn't happened.

Plus Points:
  • Colour
  • Fabric - it's machine washable!
  • Length of skirt is perfect for stacked or flat boots
  • Three-season weight
  • Lovely sleeves with "button" clasp that's actually a snap!
  • Kick pleat
  • It's in perfect condition.
Size: Medium but there's a bit of give as the fabric is jersey.

Flat Measurements:
Armpit-to-armpit: 18 inches
Waist: 15 inches
Length: 41 inches

Asking: This was $180.00 originally (if I remember correctly). I got it at last call sale for $55.00. I'm asking for $25.00 plus shipping extra. As I'm located in Canada, the shipping may be slightly higher than US-to-US postage - of course, if you're in Canada, it will work to your advantage. I'll aim to post in the most cost effective way, even if it means a slightly slower delivery. I can apprise you of the shipping cost in advance, if you would like. I estimate that it will be about $12.00.

Listing End Date: ENDED, THANKS!
