Reblogging this specifically to show to @3liza, because I think she’d be intrigued by the shape and structure.
thank you!! i think i may have even reblogged this before, because youre right, its such a high fashion and modern construction. it really emphasizes one of the interesting things about military surplus: because it is a garment designed by the national government of a country, it often reifies preexisting stereotypes about that country, in this case the canny eye for the chic typified by the French. the sleekest and most stylistically interesting milsurp pieces are often french ime! many of the “sexiest” milsurp clothes ive seen are french productions
