Vintage 1980s Saks Fifth Avenue Real Clothes Plaid Silk Power Blazer Size 10 12 14
From Saks Fifth Avenue's late lamented in-house label Real Clothes, this neutral plaid power blazer is a pure distillation of 1980s dressing — strong shoulders, relaxed fit and quality finishing like finished seams inside and plaid alignment between the pockets and the jacket.
