……………….I will be presenting this new Linea Leisure Hoodie on AM Style, Sat. July 9th……..For my petite customers, I am planning to use Meredith, the petite model so you can see the proportion. Of course that’s if she is avail. to me……..With this new BLACK LINEA LEISURE HOODIE, A279520, I am introducing a new fabric…..It is a 100% fine ribbed cotton…which has it’s own NATURAL STRETCH…..The HOODIE has become as Iconic as a pair of jeans, and as common as leggings….It can be categorized as a utilitarian garment. It is my work as a designer to make it something unique…to distinguish a Linea garment from all others……to take it from the mundane and elevate to something special…..What makes one garment…one hoodie different from another……the DETAILS……………….Besides the new fabric…there are many details to discuss. Starting at the top…there is a band collar which you can see in the third picture in from the upper left. The hood comes out from behind this band instead of simply being attached at the neckline. The front is closed with many small SNAPS….all attached to a cotton HERRINGBONE TAPE as you can see in the large center blow up photo. The tape is both on the outside and inside of the fronts. There is also a smaller tape that follows the inside neckline. The long sleeves are finished at the bottom with a 2 inch cuff, which makes it is to push up and stay up….The shape or silhouette of the hoodie is A-Line with added ease. There are front BODY SEAMS and back PRINCESS SEAMS. The hoodie has a HIGH/LOW HEM so there is maximum coverage. The xxs is approximately 30 inches…….For my petites….don’t let the length disappoint or deter you……..For my shorter petites…if the hoodie comes to just above your knee or even mid knee that’s still a great look with a pair of leggings or tights….in the fall add boots or shoe boots….If it looks like a HOODIE DRESS that will be unique to you. You can see from the photos there is some swing and drape to this top…..so it should be very comfortable for those of you who need that added room. Of course there are BAND POCKETS….so you have some place to put your tissue etc etc. They also give this Hoodie a wonderful attitude…….This new cotton fabric is light enough to wear in the summer when a hoodie may be required, and perfect in the winter layered with jewel necks and a WK TN………….With “leisure” dressing becoming more and more our way of life….I’m sure you will find this new hoodie a welcome addition…………………………………..enjoy………….much Love……………………..Louis
My favorite commercial airTravel choice – just add some “sunnies” & a beautiful scarf + Black leggings and a simple Tee for my kinda purrrrfect for long or short flights – incognito!
You always get it righteous LDO ! ! !
You had me at 100% cotton!
Jac will not buy any Ts or hoodies etc that aren’t 100 % cotton…..so I do have an influence! LOL
Honestly Louis! You continue to out do yourself! You are a MASTER at what you do of course! It’s the details, the fabrics, and the love you put into your garments that continues this love fest between us ladies and you!! This jacket is so high end and it’s the couture in you that always shines through. Thanks Louis and I’m going for the taupe, or maybe the blue.
LOVE this hoodie … and 100% cotton!!! Black and Rose, I think, for me … with THANKS, Louis!
I love this hoodie for the gym. By the way I own three of your techno jackets. They are fabulous also.
Fabulous. And in 100% cotton, hurray!
