I’m pretty sure it’s a keeper even without the closure — I’ll wear it first to see how it goes. If I really feel like I want the option of closing it, I’ll add a simple closure like a toggle or a hook and loop. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937676 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 21:11:03 +0000 Angie 1937676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FAB, <b>Janet.</b> I can see you rock it if you can handle the absence of a front closure.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937637 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 19:48:39 +0000 Vicki 1937637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A perfect purchase for you and I know you’ll look perfect in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937636 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 19:43:45 +0000 CocoLion 1937636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After watching the video and taking a closer look, I think you could put a hidden hook and eye closure near the drawstring waist. &nbsp;That wouldn't affect the shape of the drape too much. &nbsp;I vote yay. &nbsp;You can also play with the waist cinching tie so that it stays closed but drapes just right.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937456 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 12:01:53 +0000 lyn67 1937456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it /and would wear it as it is, but it's a pitty for you cannot use it multiway...:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937449 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 11:43:05 +0000 bj1111 1937449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a great jacket with nice details. Lack of closure would drive me nuts. Adding closures afterward may change how the garment hangs and moves which I think is part of the fun of this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937366 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 02:57:33 +0000 Bijou 1937366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Greyscale and Gryffin, I am tempted by this too. I can see you in this and think toggles would be a cool closure option on this jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937365 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 02:51:19 +0000 Peri 1937365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that's arriving for me tomorrow and I missed that detail. It does seem really odd that it doesn't close. Keep us posted on what you decide...I may be asking you how to "get closure"! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937356 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 01:54:13 +0000 Thistle 1937356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting about the lack of closures. That does seem like the type of jacket that would have them. The leather touches really do elevate it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937354 Mon, 16 Jul 2018 01:49:42 +0000 Kathie 1937354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have an amazing eye, for picking out items with subtle, yet perfect, details.

I liked everything about it except the lack of closure. It seems otherwise like it would be a great coverup for to and from the gym. I like to have a variety of warmth to choose from throughout the year. I often stop on the way home to grocery shop and like to be sufficiently covered up.</p> <p>If you do add a closure, Janet, please report back! Thanks!!, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937296 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 21:55:55 +0000 Greyscale 1937296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I missed that in my quick skim of all the black options. It sounds awesome. Is it sweatshirt material? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937294 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 21:51:50 +0000 Suz 1937294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very strange about the lack of closure! But it does look like a great jacket.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937289 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 21:27:03 +0000 Colette 1937289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s a really cool jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937287 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 21:22:54 +0000 Gigi 1937287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Neat! I hope you can find a way to make it close. That would make it much more versatile. </p> <p>I really like the thumbholes. I'd love to find something with that feature for myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937284 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 21:11:42 +0000 Joyce B 1937284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s a nice jacket, I love it too but did not order due to its lack of zipper or buttons. I think a jacket w thumbholes is for cold weather and I would also want it to close. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937283 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 21:10:21 +0000 Keix 1937283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the shape, looks really interesting! I'm with you on wanting some type of closure option, though. Maybe taking it to a tailor would let you know what the (affordable) alteration possibilities are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937280 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 21:02:42 +0000 Janet 1937280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, I thought of you when I posted this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937277 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 20:54:37 +0000 Anonymous 1937277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sweet - I LOVE this! &nbsp;I'd wear this everyday. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blanc-noir-traveler-jacket#post-1937275 Sun, 15 Jul 2018 20:50:28 +0000 Janet 1937275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First item to arrive from my online NAS order. True to size, and I actually quite like it on. It’s a nice combination of comfortable and fashionable. I love the thumb holes and the leather on the sleeves — along with the hood, those details elevate it so it doesn’t seem “too athleisure.” </p> <p>The odd thing is that it does not close — no zip, no buttons. I am toying with the idea of keeping it and adding a couple of simple loop and toggle closures, which would do the trick. It just feels like the kind of topper I would like to be able to close. </p> <p>Otherwise I really like it! </p>
