Vintage 60s-70s Virginian Special Denim Jacket With Handmade Bandana Halter Top

Okay, this might be my favorite item on Poshmark. I was helping out a family member and cleaning out an old house. Lots of vintage items in that attic. For all my hard work, they said to pick something out. I’m not really into glassware and old pyrex, but I love me some old clothes, shoes, belts, hats, and purses. I opened an old bag of clothes that they literally had out at the garbage can, and found these gems. As soon as the other older ladies saw the two items, they all started to laugh. Sissy, their sister, ruffled their mamma’s feathers back in the 60’s. She sliced and diced her denim jacket and added a lot of patches for flair. I guess some of those patches Mamma didn’t agree with, so off they came. Sissy stitched the reversible bandana halter top herself, and Mamma wasn’t happy with that one either. The sisters told me there are pictures somewhere with Sissy wearing this exact outfit. Wow. I wish I was younger—I’d rock this look. The denim is soft. It does have wear, but what do you expect? There is a small amount of rust around the buttons in the pocket flaps, but the flaps hide them well. Now on with the halter. It’s gorgeous. The material is strong and washed up real well. There were two holes on the blue side where Sissy wore a pin of some kind. I did stitch them up, and where they are positioned near the neck in the pleating, they aren’t very noticeable. I love the style, the feel, the kick ass vintage look of a sixties child rebelling. Patches 60s
