Timothy Gibbons OOAK Designer Upcycled Striped Ireland Rugby Corset Hoodie Sz M

This is THE corset hoodie featured in Vogue, this Timothy Gibbons corset hoodie is one of a kind, upcycled from a vintage Irish rugby hoodie. "In the early months of the pandemic, Timothy Gibbons was toying around with a shamrock-green Irish rugby shirt he’d found in a thrift store when inspiration struck. He pulled out his cutting scissors and sliced it in half horizontally; next, he put his Central Saint Martins degree to work, building a meticulously constructed quilted corset in a matching shade. He pieced the two together, and behold!" Stylish green and navy striped hoodie with embroidered Ireland emblem. Features a zip-up front and hood. All of the seams are serged. Marked size women's M, which the size chart says is for a 29"-30" waist. My waist is 29" and I find it true to size: body-hugging, but not tight. Would also fit nicely on a slightly smaller waist. I'm parting with this because I'm 5'9" and it's too short for me. It's approximately 21" from shoulder to bottom point, so I could only wear it with my highest-waisted pants, so I never reached for this. It's very cute, very warm, and a great conversation starter! Because this is crafted from an upcycled hoodie, it shows wear and fading on the outside, and some pilling on the inside. That is part of the appeal. It's comfortably lived-in. Sold as-is. Purchased for $275 + $30 shipping from Café Forgot. My house is smoke free and pet free. Thank you for looking!
