We Are A Part of the Rhythm Nation

Rhythm Nation Countdown

My original plan was to wear this once, then sell the whole set on ebay (skirt not shown = too small).
But now that I’ve worn it?
Helllllll no.
Staying with me!
(Skirt will be sent to the Oldham’s in Brooklyn. Which sis will it fit?!)

Louis Ferard Rhythm Nation jacket

Had to do big hair (slept in pin curls!).
Channeling Janet’s That’s The Way Love Goes curls (notice Fly Girl JLo in the video).
Plus, such a strong silhouette needed some volume.
The shoulder pads are built in. I wouldn’t think of removing them.

Look at this thing!

Louis Feraud thrifted vintage jacket

Black blown out for some detail :

extra buttons

Before Féraud designed clothing, he was a painter & French Resistance lieutenant. Of course!
Guy definitely designed for my body type (and for ladies from Bridgette Bardot to Joan Collins).
This may be the most perfectly-structured-for-me piece I’ve found, yet!

“Féraud designed for a seductive woman who lived in harmony with life and herself,
a woman looking for comfort and freedom.”
