- Size Large measures 50" around in the bust and 30.5" long.
Jean jacket option #2 is a more boxy cut oversized style and a more traditional jean jacket type. Only available in S and XS.
- Size XS measures 40" around in the bust and 23" long.
- Size Small measures 44" around in the bust and 23.5" long.
You can choose one of two images:
Image #1 is of a vintage postcard from pre-occupation Palestine/Jerusalem. The Palestinian/Turkish women are wearing traditional textiles and dress. Since the postcard is nearly 100 years old, it is unclear whether the women are Turkish or just an orientalist incorrect take on who the women are.
The postcard reads (in French, English and German):
“JERUSALEM
Femmes turcs.
Mohammedan Women.
Mohammedamische Frauen.”
Image #2 is an image of Masjid Al-Aqsa and beautiful digital tatreez (traditional Palestinian embroidery).
Sizing considerations: Please refer to measurements for a perfect fit.
Care: Spot clean or hand wash only in cold water and hang to dry. The woven nature of the Kuffiyah fabric is not meant for machine washing.
