    This is a brown velvet "bomber" jacket with black rhinestoned buttons, front (top) pockets, and a nice pointed collar. The cuffs also have buttons, this jacket is lined, it is quite faded as well i believe. Fits cropped. Definitely gives off that original bomber jacket look, I bought this off someone saying that this is vintage from the 50s, the buttons do give off that 50s look but the overall look of the jacket looks 70s to me and I know fashion is recycled throughout the decades so I'm not sure, what do you guys think?

    Looks to be a 1970s velveteen jacket, these were pretty popular back then. I might guess that the buttons were replaced to give it a bit of glam.
