defunctfashion:Spencer Jacket | c. 1835• • •The Spencer jacket was named for the 2nd Earl Spencer, who was a sartorial risk taker and trendsetter (much like his direct descendant, Lady Diana Spencer). He is said to have cut the tails off his coat and the style quickly became en vogue for both men and women. This exceptional example was updated with ever so popular gigot sleeve and wide collar of the mid 30s. • • •#spencerjacket #ridingcoat #regencyfashion #defunctfashion #vintagefashion #fashion #historicalfashion #historyoffashion #lacma https://www.instagram.com/p/BobtAnLFVQy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=veqfhad1mxxv -- source link
