2009 Reissue of the ‘Clint Eastwood’ Fashion Show AW84/85

Showing Vivienne’s interest in different cutting techniques at the time, the jacket is cut without a curved line anywhere (except the waist pockets). Normally, with a standard cut technique, the top of a sleeve or neckline would be curved to fit the body, but with what is called an ethnic cut, the same effect can be achieved by inserting pieces of fabric called gussets.

So, to create the curve of the bomber neckline, a triangular gusset has been placed at the back of the neck under the collar. To give the necessary extra volume in the sleeve at the shoulder joint, a diamond-shaped gusset has been added in the armpit area.

The proportions of the jacket have been given a heroic look with extra volume added to the shoulders. The placement of the pockets here also adds to this effect (there are a total of 6 pockets on the bomber: 4 on the shoulders and 2 at the waist).

Thick wool rib finishes the jacket, starting at the waist and around the hips in a wide 40 cm high band. Also starting just below the elbows on the sleeves, down to the cuffs, and the collar is also ribbed.
