Victorie MacKenzie Jacket

**Ruaraidh** · 15th February 12, 08:54 AM

This is my first attempt at posting pictures. (picture size) I wanted to share my newly converted tweed jacket. This is a Victoria MacKenzie conversion and it turned out splendid . If you have a jacket that you are thinking about converting, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend having her do the work. She is a member on this forum. I've only been out and about in the Kilt a dozen times and I am still accessorizing. So it's not much, just everything I've got! And some of it was borrowed. The pretty face, that's my wife.

I have 2 of Victoria's jackets and they certainly are fantastic. For one of the 2 I had requested blue. She was extremely helpful in locating one through her thrift sources and then creating a gorgeous jacket. I get compliments on them all the time. She is a warm and kind lady.

BTW, I took the liberty of posting the pic directly for you.

Great looking Jacket!!! How do I contact this remarkable seamstress? I do have several jackets that could be modified for a "new life"

Cheers,

I'd send her a PM, she's posted right above you (vmac3205).

As a matter of fact, I have a khaki Italian suit in which the trousers are completely done for, now. But, instead of trashing the whole suit, I was thinking of converting the jacket to a kilt jacket.

A very handsome jacket. Congratulations! It goes well with that good-looking kilt too, ... and your lovely wife. In fact, your entire outfit is very dapper.

I have two, too, ... of Victoria's jackets - one a black poly/wool blend and the other a dark-brown Harris tweed. She did a wonderful job on each of them. I plan to post pictures in vivo, so to speak, but I'm bad about finding the "right" picture.
