鈥婽his jacket would have been worn over a woman鈥檚 work dress or blouse, most likely while she labored outdoors. Its construction mimics the fashionable hourglass silhouette of the period, with tucks that cinch at the wrists and natural waistline. Denim is typically thought of as a menswear textile, but it was also common in women鈥檚 workwear during the 19th century.
Shitty photos but I wore my battle vest for the third time ever.
Little bit of backstory but I made this during December last year and never wore it because some of the patches on my jacket were "not appropriate" and my dad was "disappointed" with what I wrote on them, so I got really discouraged from wearing it. I wanted to wear it to my first day of College but he saw it and told me I wasn't allowed to wear it.
But today I said fuck it. It's been several months and I put so much fucking effort into this and I've never even worn it. So I did. And I felt awesome all day
The patches I have on there are
- "Fuck the system"
- "Dead men can't cat call"
- "cowabunga dudes"
- TMNT
- "the earth is our mother"
- "punks not dead"
- "If you aren't angry you aren't paying attention"
- "people before profit"
- "Punks respect pronouns"
- a spiderweb
- "we all bleed the same colour"
