Polo Ralph Lauren Patchwork Jacket

Greeneyedlady21 — Mon, 03 May 2021 20:21:49 GMT

$398

Inspired by Polo's signature pattern play, this jacket showcases a patchwork of madras, gingham, and floral-print fabrics crafted from cotton and yarn-dyed linen. It's finished with a unique washing process to achieve a timeworn appearance.

@Greeneyedlady21I expect that price point from this designer. I can't see me wearing this awful pattern though. Do you have the fabric specifications?

While I like the jacket, I wouldn't wear it, especially since most of my tops are prints. How about you, @Greeneyedlady21?

Similar preppy fabric he made into a blazer years ago. This one looks like he included feedbag print with the plaid.

This is cute, but not my style of jacket.

Cute in the Spring with jeans and solid tee. Yes I would wear it.

I wouldn't wear this even if a gift.

Perhaps pillows, throw or bedspread...But the colors not rich enough for my decorating like...

It's not for me. But I do love quilts and it reminds me of quilts. Quilt pattern jackets have become a trend recently.

I don't do patchwork any more. But I would sport a madras plaid pair of bermudas.

Look like a quilt my grandma made.

@Greeneyedlady21 I like this jacket. To me, it's a combo of madras fabrics & fabrics used in quilting. It's very Americana. I'd wear it with jeans & a T-shirt.

Looks like she took a quilt and made a jacket out of it.

I'm the one who has been crazy about Madras for many years.

The true Madras from India.

Yes, I love this cute Madras patchwork.

I would love to see a vest in this Madras patchwork style.

@Greeneyedlady21 I would wear this. Almost always like Ralph Lauren items. Wallet doesn't always expand enough for me to purchase, especially an item as limited as this is as to using/wearing it.

@ROMARY Now, I love the idea of this in a vest. That would make it more easily useable/wearable.

Reminds me of Dolly Parton's "Coat of Many Colors".

@Greeneyedlady21at least it's cotton and linen. If it were in a solid color for spring/summer it would a be a nice piece for going out in the evening hours. Thanks for responding.

I don't care for it as a jacket, but as @ROMARY said, a vest is more palatable for me personally.

Too much going on. Although, it's a Lauren, I'm not in "love"!!!
