Vintage French “Brocante Market” Chore Jacket – Hand Stencilled Workwear Coat Chest 100cm

A truly special piece of original French workwear with incredible character and presence. This deep indigo-blue vintage chore jacket has been individually hand-stencilled with a faded French market-inspired design, giving it the feel of an old Parisian marchand’s coat or antique market uniform. The typography references a fictional French brocante market and creates that perfectly worn, collected-over-time aesthetic seen throughout Polly’s French buying trips and social media. This is very much in the spirit of the jackets Polly wears while treasure hunting across France for Brocante Legends and French General Trading. The cotton has softened beautifully with age and wear, giving the jacket that authentic French atelier feel modern reproductions simply cannot recreate. A fantastic styling piece for layered interiors-fashion looks, antique fairs, creative studios, markets, festivals or everyday wear.
