And does anyone own this? Would love to know what the sizing is like.

Is this a jacket of dreams?

Of nightmares? Yes, you are correct.

It doesn't even look like a jacket it looks like one of those awful 'shackets' ie-jacket they cba to actually líne tó cost cut.

I'd maybe consider it for a fiver but not nearly £200.

It's awful. A baggy green shirt.

Hideous.

It looks best with the sleeves rolled up, in my opinion, in those photos, but would it be worn like that.

I've found Anthropology sizing to be inconsistent (waist sizing can be slightly larger, in my experience) so I'd really probably go and try something on there first. The jacket looks like an oversized fit, so possibly safe to risk in your usual size, if buying online.

Anthropologie. Damn autocorrect!

I think it's lovely but not at that price.

Thank you @HeadNorth

I bloody love it! Can’t understand all the hate!

SoupDragon · 15/03/2022 22:28

It's because it's shapeless and hideous. 😂

GreenTeaPingPong · 15/03/2022 22:34

Interesting that none of the photos actually show the jacket in full view normally - makes me suspect that the shape of it is pretty hideous if you're just walking down the street in it (although I like the embroidery). Also, how is that an 'heirloom'?

Purplecatshopaholic · 15/03/2022 22:37

I love Anthro, but generally wait for the sales as not convinced most pieces are worth full price. I like this piece but wouldn’t pay that for it

It's hard to tell what it would actually look like on a person standing or walking normally.

NotNotNotMyName · 16/03/2022 18:47

Too fussy for my liking but I do prefer a coat that goes with everything

TabithaTittlemouse · 16/03/2022 18:51

I think it’s really nice

pastypirate · 20/03/2022 23:39

It's way overpriced.

It would look ace at festivals or backpacking or whatever. Away from that scene it looks like army surplus with iron on patches.

grannyjacob · 21/03/2022 23:46

I’m in my late 60s, I think it’s lovely, I’d wear it but unfortunately it’s an absolutely ridiculous price.

MrBoldwood · 22/03/2022 17:49

I like it.
