{"product_id":"70s-veb-cotton-canvas-jacket","title":"70s VEB cotton canvas jacket","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eColors may appear different depending on the shooting environment, but the product photos are as close as possible to the actual item.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage women's piece was a shocking find when I first saw it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is presumably a work jacket for women from East Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tag is simple, the kind often seen on workwear, but\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethe design is incredibly fashionable. Where do I even start? Haha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, the large, quintessentially 70s collar that catches your eye, and\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eit's a zip-up jacket with tons of pockets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also has an elasticized waist for a shaped silhouette,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eand elasticized cuffs that create a ruffled look. So cute!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pleats running down the back are cool, it looks great with the large collar popped up,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eand the top and bottom pocket design on the front goes without saying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric, this unbleached cotton canvas, is truly rare and interesting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo begin with, you rarely see this kind of fabric used in general East German clothing, including workwear. I’ve only ever seen it once on a chore jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn terms of design and silhouette alone, it’s a super stylish piece, almost like 80s Mugler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYet, it’s from socialist-era East Germany. And its intended use was probably as a work garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI was moved to realize there are still clothes out there I know nothing about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt reminded me of the feeling I had when I first started living in Europe, when every day was filled with things like, \"What is this?
