About the Jacket

All of the jackets/coats in this collection are vintage and have a couple of marks due to wear. They’ve been hand picked and collected over the last 5 months especially for this collection.
Sizing: All jackets and coats are unisex. This jacket is listed as a S (depending on the desired fit) but vintage sizes are tricky to match up to modern sizing. Please check your measurements before purchasing to avoid disappointment. Nadia is a size 8.

Length (back of neck to bottom hem) = 29”
About the Design:
Beetles are the largest group of insects, with over 300,000 known species. Of these, 4,000 occur in Britain. Some are very small, others are relatively large. Most beetles can fly, but they spend much of their time on the ground or in low vegetation. This jacket is painted with an array of beetles that you can find across the uk including dung beetle (Onthophagus medius), violet ground beetle (Carabus violaceus), rainbow leaf beetle (Chrysolina cerealis) and the fat legged flower beetle (Oedemera nobilis).
Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you require assistance with sizing or would like further pictures of this piece. If you like this jacket but it is not in your size, please let me know via this contact form. I am happy to discuss commissions.
