Lets all go back in time....

A combination of Tweed and Shoulder Pads
Tweed has recently come back into fashion with many high street shops and designers adopting the material especially for their autumn/winter collections.
They have been an epitome of power dressing since the 40’s...and now the shoulder pads are back in fashion. Carola Long and Harriet Walker from the independent fashion state that ‘exaggerated shoulders are the dare to wear statement of the season’. In the 80’s they became a household name for celebrities such as Melanie Griffith and Michael Jackson. 
After WW2 women’s fashions became increasingly militarised. Jackets and coats were influenced by masculine styles and shoulder pads became bulkier and were positioned at the top of the shoulder to create a solid look.

In the high designer market you can get this divine Givenchy Brushed Tweed Ruffle Jacket for a mere £ 1550.00.

For those of you that want the designer quality without the large price tag you can grab this Paul Costelloe Classic Tweed Car Coat for a reasonable £349.



But for all you traders out there that are looking to find a great seller....look no further. Here at J & N Herz this ex Warehouse Tweed Crombie Coat with shoulder pads is at a fantastic trade price of £16.50. Retailing at £100 on the high street – there is a great deal of profit to be made.
