A whimsical blazer that could also be a staple for a confident person. I like how it seems to be an updated cut for blazers--I am hoping we are over the oversized look soon.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2374739 Thu, 21 Nov 2024 13:27:50 +0000 RobinF 2374739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had no idea they were still in existence! I never got the catalog but of course remember them from Seinfeld. So funny.</p> <p>I love a good plaid. Must be the Scottish in me :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2374716 Wed, 20 Nov 2024 16:58:25 +0000 Vicki 2374716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for reminding me about J. Peterman and I always loved it when I received their catalogue, especially for their descriptions. I must be off their mailing list. &nbsp;Your link on the plaid jacket was so much to see and I may explore their website now. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373517 Sun, 03 Nov 2024 14:08:04 +0000 Angie 2373517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute blazer!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373504 Sun, 03 Nov 2024 00:32:22 +0000 Jaime 2373504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:) whenever I see J. Peterman referenced I think of Elaine of course! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373487 Sat, 02 Nov 2024 13:16:42 +0000 cat2 2373487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that catalog was so dangerous! I bought the most impractical but gorgeous things there. Their ivory silk trench coat was my evening coat for decades. I didn’t know they were still around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373483 Sat, 02 Nov 2024 09:41:05 +0000 April 2373483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some of you may remember that in the later years of the <i>Seinfeld</i>&nbsp;sitcom, Elaine went to work for J. Peterman. The character of Mr. Peterman would speak the way the catalog was written. </p> <p>Their catalog is famous for "product stories":</p> <p><i>Wear it, and a window table becomes available at the Rainbow Room, a Marcello Mastroianni type invites you for a weekend in Cortina, and you get the part of Amanda in an upcoming revival of Private Lives.</i></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373466 Sat, 02 Nov 2024 01:03:16 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2373466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A beautiful classic! I think I ordered from that catalog ages ago! Back when paper catalogs were the deal. Yes, before the Internet was a household thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373463 Sat, 02 Nov 2024 00:10:29 +0000 Lisa 2373463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never heard of this brand but what a statement plaid blazer! And matching trousers! I adore plaid. To me it's a print that's always in style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373461 Fri, 01 Nov 2024 21:57:24 +0000 Jenni NZ 2373461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isn’t it the Royal Stewart tartan? (Stewarts as in Mary Queen of Scots et al?- dating back from Robert the Bruce’s daughter marrying one?)<br /> That’s my favourite tartan, I still own one shirt in it I bought in 1985! And a rug we bought 1988 from Pringle of Scotland.<br /> I can’t bring myself to say “plaid”- British colony here means tartan for ever! And my DNA unexpectedly showed approx 40% Scottish!<br /> Thanks for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373458 Fri, 01 Nov 2024 19:32:59 +0000 Roberta 2373458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That red plaid is exceptional, and what a rare find - a three button blazer for women! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-true-lovers-of-traditional-plaids#post-2373456 Fri, 01 Nov 2024 18:38:49 +0000 April 2373456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got the latest J Peterman catalog in the mail and see that they are offering a red "British tartan" jacket. Matching trousers available (scroll down a little).&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://jpeterman.com/products/3-button-tartan-blazer">https://jpeterman.com/products.....tan-blazer</a></p> <p>Have never bought from them and so cannot speak to sizing or quality, just passing this along to our plaid lovers. </p>
