Designer Yvonne Koné in her Mads Norgaard coverall jacket
A denim work jacket is what I have in mind for spring like the one worn by Danish designer Yvonne Koné.
I've been quite attracted to the work version rather than the standard jacket (which I already have) - without the mildly useful 2 breast buttoned pockets but actual front pockets I can easily shove my hands/ iPhone/ metro card into.
I would like soft but not paper thin denim in a medium wash or raw indigo blue with an oversize longer cut - to cover part of my bum- and generous pockets.
Ideally, it would be this old Acne jacket...

I'd counterbalance the utilitarian non-descript style of the jacket with my favorite combinations of basics: loose clothes, shots of color, a bit of Dutch wax/batik prints, a prim dress -to dress it up and flats.
that acne jacket! i have had an image of it saved on my computer for ages...
RépondreSupprimerdo you know the style name of it? i took a screen shot of a girl wearing it and have never been able to find the original source since then.
merci merci! your blog is one of the only ones i read with continuity!
Haha! Your story totally echoes mine!! I've been stalking all the online second hand stores for that Acne jacket (called the "Brancusi"). Let's join in a prayer so that Acne reproduces it again!
RépondreSupprimerTruly appreciate your kind words about the blog!
Ugh that Acne denim jacket has been on my radar for so long, but I missed the original season and it never seems to come up used anywhere. Seeing you post it just brought back all my desire!
RépondreSupprimerI wish I wasn't so hung up on things there's one in a million chance for me to get... Just can't help looking for that jacket after all this time.
