BB Blazer - Pass for 1920s/30s inspired???

[volvomeister13]

Anyone think this could pass for 1920's or early 1930's? The waist suppression looks good, but I can't tell if the waist and button stance are too low. Also, don't know about the shoulders.

Honestly, I'd pass. "346" is part of BB's outlet mall line - so you're looking at a step down in quality from the blazers you'd find in a BB proper - i.e., a jacket held together by glue. The waist suppression looks more defined than it really is because the mannequin is too big for the jacket - you can tell by the way the vent is pulled open in the photo of the back side of the blazer. Also, it's probably not heavy enough if you want something that would pass for 20's-30's. Most of the "346" fabrics I've handled have been pretty lightweight. IMHO, if you want something affordable that can pass for 20's/30's, you might hold off until someone puts another well done 1970's copy on etsy.

It might pass for 50s or 70s, not earlier
