The Design: The Robe Coat silhouette is inspired by a vintage men’s smoking jacket. We went back to our original robe design and brought back the cushy doubled roll collar and added a matching removable belt. This jacket is a longer length to keep you extra cozy with two large patch pockets on the front and straight wide sleeves that hit above the wrist.
The Textile: This quilt is made using pretty, old cotton fabrics from the 1950's -1960's. The quilt top was sewn on a home sewing machine with hand stitched binding all around in excellent condition. The blanket is quilted using the hand-tie technique with variegated green cotton thread. The back of the quilt is soft matching rust colored cotton fabric. It is thin and would make a comfortable garment.
We make each jacket using repurposed vintage quilts that we source from textile waste centers across Texas. Quilts are updated as often as we find suitable pieces to be transformed. Each piece of clothing we make uses vintage material, so there may be “imperfections” in the form of mended areas, patches & distressing.
How it works: Choose a quilt from our collection and select your size. The specific measurements of each size are located in our size chart above. If you wish to have your piece tailored beyond our given design, (ex: sleeve length, jacket length, or other special requests) please contact us via email. Howdy@psychicoutlaw.com
Made To Order: This jacket is crafted especially for you. Please choose your size and style thoughtfully. We do not offer returns on these one of a kind creations. We want each quilt to be respectfully invested in before we cut into it. The time and love poured into each jacket is time consuming and a work of art, as we revive these historic quilts into wearable clothing. Reach out to us if you have any questions - we are real and nice humans who love to see these quilts turn into something cherished once again.
Eco-Bonus: We would love to further upcycle the scrap pieces from this chosen quilt into matching accessories like pet bandanas, baby jackets, totes & more! Click here to visit the Upcycle Shop.
Please allow 4-7 weeks for us to create your jacket (not including shipping or embroidery time).
