Happy B-day to me! :) Been a while since I last posted but had to to take some time out to finally get around to posting the crowning jewel of my collection. A vintage Marina Reflective, whose previous owner was none other than the man himself, Massimo Osti. Click below for more.

The one jacket in my collection that would never be sold would have to be the vintage marina, from Massimo Osti’s personal collection. While there are other Marina’s in better condition, and colours, just knowing that Osti once owned and even handled this piece makes it the jewel of my collection. And how cool is it that it came with a certificate of authenticity from the Massimo Osti Archive!

    I think that the non-perfect condition, given that it is certified as having been worn by Osti himself, must only add to its value. A truly stunning addition to your collection!

    Nice jacket… Not a massive fan of the colour, but that’s just personal choice! If its worn in a bit, that just saves you having to wear it in, new clothing always looks odd for the 1st couple of months… I luv it, if Massimo Osti wore it, just makes it that bit special… how much did you have to pay?
