Art-to-wear Embroidered Vintage Military Flightsuit
Hand embellished vintage Vietnam era military flightsuit.
Not 100% sure on fiber content but it feels like a lightweight fire resistant material.
These coveralls have been altered to be more fitted in the waist and leg. As this was one of my first jumpsuit tailoring projects, it does have some imperfection in the seams inside. Also, the seams at the bottom pant legs don't line up 100%, but it's not noticeable when being worn or even better if you just cuff them.
Some minor holes throughout but any major ones have been repaired over with stitching.
Art deco inspired 10" circle embroidery and beading design on the back featuring a beaded star motif throughout the entire piece. Beads used are all salvaged vintage beads.
A true one-of-a-kind statement piece. Wear art, be art.

This piece took upwards of 6 months to embellish and is priced very low because this was essentially a prototype and I would just love for somebody to wear it!!
