WWII German Panzer tank driver jacket meets motorcycle jacket.
WWII German Panzer tank driver jacket meets motorcycle jacket.
A unique coat for a unique client, who dictated the design features. Felted wool with some postmodern details, a navy silk lining and collar facing. 2013.
Custom tailoring details on this piece include:
-
Welt pockets with ballistic nylon pocket interiors for strength and longevity (you know how annoying it is when inferior pocket linings get holes in them).
-
True vented sleeves to button and unbutton (non-skeumorph stuff here). Intentionally asymmetrical lengths, so one sleeve vent is longer than the other.
-
A removable, half capelet that attaches with snaps at the collar.
-
Belt buckle beautifully engraved for us with the client’s initials by fine artist, Timm Paxton.

Custom Capelets: Lunatic Fringe Salons
Custom costume items, fabricated specifically for hair shoots.
These are custom capelets in ruffled organza, made for this Lunatic Fringe ad campaign.
Another shoot for Lunatic Fringe had us making corseted collars with ruffled details. It’s always fun to see the collection shown together.
The hair and beauty industries often use this triptych approach, unifying the hairstyles and models with similar costume/wardrobe silhouettes.
