Really haven't worn it as my stay-at-home lifestyle doesn't suit it. My favourite aubergine silk jacket of all time... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-90s-shoulders#post-687357 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 22:25:37 +0000 Aziraphale 687357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Esme, it's funny that you should post this, because I recently dug out a black jacket that used to be part of a suit (the bottoms are long gone; haven't fit for over a decade) from circa 1992, and wore it a few times with jeans. I love this jacket, but decided the shoulders really are silly. They seem huge. So just last week I took it in and had them remove the shoulder pads, and also had the shoulders taken in a bit. I haven't even picked it up yet, so we'll see if the tailoring worked. I'll let you know if it did -- because I know I'll wear that jacket all the darned time if so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-90s-shoulders#post-687335 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 21:53:26 +0000 esme noir 687335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>here's a question for you: i have a collection of 5-10 lovely wool jackets from my working days in the early to mid nineties. only problem is they all have these huge shoulders and arms and look pretty silly when i put them on (how did i ever wear these??). i can't bear to give some away, and removing the shoulder pads does not do the trick. i've considered tailoring, but fear it would need to be so radical that the proportions would be distorted. is it a lost cause to make these wearable again? below is one of my fav's---hard to see in the photo, but in addition to the big shoulders it has peplum style back. </p>
