Nope.

Yes, what do you mean Jovan?

Personally i think the jacket is just too big for Jerekson. And i was imagining a manly cut. There is nothing manly (masculine; in the traditions of male tailoring) about this jacket. It is a jacket which looks wrong when accessorized with men's accessories.

Note how this would be a non-issue if it were the other way around.
If a female member posted a pic of herself in a man's jacket and asked for opinions we would give honest comments.

This is not an issue for anyone. Jerekson asked for help and those who commented are helping out.

Yeah I understand perfectly what Jovan is saying. And even so it's typically more acceptable for a woman to wear man's clothing than a man to wear women's clothing. Y'know? :p

Personally, I thought the cut of the jacket was pretty masculine when I saw it. But after BK's comments I'm looking back at those pictures and realizing how wrong I was about it.
Like I said, it was mostly impulse buying. And it's not like I got a totally good look at it in the cramped little store with the little mirrors. I guess it's one of those look-good-in-the-store-look-bad-at-home kind of things.

Well yeah, thanks for talking me off the ledge.

A woman in a man's jacket...

...frankly, a woman looks better in a fitted jacket where it fits 'into' the waist and then out again over the hips, like a lady's jacket should look. She is the painting and the jacket is the frame.

The only piece of men's clothing that looks in anyway good on a woman is perhaps a fedora and most certainly a nicely tailored Thomas Pink or Turnbull & Asser shirt first thing in the morning at breakfast.

I've always had a thing for women wearing my cashmere V-neck sweaters sans brassiere. :eek:
