I found this beautiful (IMO!) VW jacket on ebay and its on its way to me!

How would you wear/style it?

Oh, that is nice. I'd wear it with a good quality white t-shirt and very dark skinnies with leather flats and sunnies, but that might not be your kind of thing!

It's lovely, I would wear it with navy culottes or wide leg trousers, stripey or plain tee and flatform trainers.

That’s gorgeous.

Thanks for the ideas, wide trousers and flatforms are a great idea @Mercurial123

Love a bit of VW!

Black skinny trousers/jeans, black or white t-shirt, red or navy bandanna, trainers or flats

Black opaque weather over for now, but black tights, black mini skirt and boots would be good with it or a denim skirt and red/white top and white/grey/blue trainers or shoes, or red

It's lovely and would go with almost anything

What a great find! VW is so clever.

I think I would have to have a massive trying on session. I would start with ankle length wide legs, simply cos that's what I'm planning to wear most of the summer but to be honest, I'm not sure how well they would set it off.

I think it might work better with something more fitted e.g. narrow leg trousers or skinnies, as Remus suggests - I'm not wearing them much these days but, for that jacket, I would make an exception.

Or a very fitted pencil or tube skirt, just below the knee for a 40s/50s silhouette.

Yes to a tube skirt - and these beauties to go with. :)
