Whale-Embossed Jackets

Thom Browne's Jacquard Varsity Jacket Makes Free Willy Look Fashionable

Designer Thom Browne has released another whale-inspired statement piece with the unveiling of his Whale Stamp Jacquard Varsity Jacket. This cool jacket is a piece taken from the designer's Fall/Winter '15 collection, which expresses an adoration for the sea mammal.

This Thom Browne jacquard varsity jacket is offered in black and is constructed with a luxurious wool blend. Tonal calf skin leather sleeves contrast perfectly against the wool body of the jacket, while the whale jacquard print gives this piece of outerwear a delightful twist. Just like most items by Thom Browne, this jacket also bares Browne's signature -- and patriotic -- red, white and blue stripes.

In addition to the eccentric whale print, the Thom Browne Whale Stamp Jacquard Varsity Jacket also features whale embossing on its five buttons.
