A patchwork blouson, estimated to date from the 1970s, European manufacture.
The hand-stitched details visible throughout, combined with the absence of a brand label, suggest this is a handmade piece—created for personal use rather than commercial production. A work that carries the warmth of that old-fashioned craft.
The fabric appears to be vintage quilted material of European origin, which has been deconstructed and reconstituted as a jacket. Beyond its merits as a garment, the textile itself holds considerable rarity value.
Small but functional pockets are positioned at both side seams, serving equally well as hand-warmer pockets or for carrying small items—a practical detail born of thoughtful design.
The cuffs, hem, and neckline are finished with ribbing, providing a fitted silhouette while maintaining a refined shape.
The front closure employs a zip fastener, fitted with C&C hardware.
Constructed in 100% cotton, this piece reveals the character of natural fiber—its patina deepening with time. The fabric weight suits wear across seasons, making it a year-round companion.
The colorway is multicolored on a white ground.
White as the base lends an overall lightness, while the vintage quilted patches introduce their own distinct character. Paisley, florals, and geometric patterns—primarily in navy and blue tones—are woven together with remarkable restraint, creating depth and richness in both color and pattern.
A patchwork blouson that honors handmade warmth while remaining entirely present in contemporary styling.
Pair it with jeans or chinos for understated casualness, or with tailored trousers for something more refined. Its versatility is considerable, and it will undoubtedly expand one's approach to dressing.
Quality and design sensibility in equal measure—a piece untouched by the transience of fashion, suited to the way we dress now.
Recommended for those who approach fashion with both understanding and discernment.
No size marking is present, though proportions suggest M to L.
The actual measurements indicate a generous fit, accommodating larger frames without compromise.
Light surface wear and creasing are evident, though no substantial damage impairs wear. The piece remains entirely serviceable.
