I think it was because of this chain pattern and this street regal day to night ready vibe that this jacket was giving me, that I thought it was vintage. Its not though. Its Warren Donner.
Like good music, i dug around for this. I had never heard of the brand before I found this jacket while consignment shopping. Tell me in honest that you don’t think this orange-red don’t just grab your attention. Bruhhhhhhh. I pulled this one out the racks and saw this white and black and blue trim around this chain patterned red and was like SNATCHES!!!
I was so excited to have found something that looked this good. Someone gave up on this jacket for me. That, my friend, is the beauty of consignment shopping. That happens in thrift stores too but more often in consignment shops.
More about WDNY. It stands for Warren Donner New York. The Brand launched its first line in 2003, starting with women’s wear. 2003? Of coarse its not vintage, not yet. They have a new men’s line called “Edge.” Its a spunky version of lapel jackets and casual wear. Check it out WDNY here > http://bit.ly/2gL5VcJ
Although this brand is still mostly women’s wear, Im posting to emphasis how it pays to shop everywhere. Fashion moves in one plane to another constantly revolving on a sliding axis.
