Vintage Clothing - 1960s Emerald Italian Wool Blend Mod Jacket 'VIP' - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

1960s Emerald Italian Wool Blend Mod Jacket

$149.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

There is a cheerful precision to 1960s tailoring that is seems impossible to replicate. This authentic vintage jacket is a perfect example. Crafted from a fine Italian wool blend, the fabric has a smooth and almost felted hand that holds the structure beautifully.

The silhouette is classic mod. It features a charming rounded collar and five fabric-covered buttons that run down the centre front. The cut is gently boxy which allows it to sit neatly at the high hip without clinging. This shape is excellent for adding structure to the upper body while maintaining a clean vertical line.

Style it buttoned all the way up for a polished look with a black pencil skirt as shown. Alternatively, wear it open over a white tee and high-waisted denim for a relaxed weekend outfit. This is sustainable style that is bold yet simple. It is a piece of quality design that feels fresh decades later.

Vintage Clothing - Fletcher Jones Made In Australia Teal Linen Blend Double Breasted Blazer 'VIP' - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Fletcher Jones Made In Australia Teal Linen Blend Double Breasted Blazer

$149.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This is the kind of authentic vintage blazer that instantly upgrades whatever you already own. A Fletcher Jones piece in a saturated teal green that reads confident, polished, and a little bit cinematic. The fabric has a subtle texture that hints at its linen blend, so it looks expensive up close, not flat or flimsy.

The cut is classic power-tailoring in the best way: a longline shape with strong shoulders, a clean notched lapel, and a double breasted front that creates structure through the torso without feeling stiff. The button stance gives you that defined line down the body, and the length balances proportions beautifully, especially if you like your jackets to skim past the hip.

Styling wise, this is a wardrobe workhorse with personality. Wear it open over a simple tee and straight leg denim for weekday ease. Button it up and pair with a sleek skirt or tailored trousers for meetings, dinners, or any moment you want to look like you have a plan. It also looks brilliant over a slip dress, because the sharp lapel and longer length add contrast and shape. If you love a waist moment, add a belt over the blazer and let the lapel frame the neckline like built-in styling.

Circa: 1940 - 2000
Origin: Private Collection AU
Label: Fletcher Jones

Fabric: Linen blend (label shows 20% linen)
Condition: Excellent commensurate with age and love

Vintage Clothing - Green Velvet Theatre Coat - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Emerald Green Cotton Velvet Vintage A-line Swing Coat

$189.00 $179.00 Save $10.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This emerald cotton velvet coat has that rich, depthy green that reads luxe without being flashy, with a classic swing shape that moves beautifully as you walk.

The silhouette is an easy A-line, designed to sashay and swish, with a wide collar and statement buttons that keep the front looking clean and considered.

Try it over a neutral knit to bring out the true colour peacock tones. Or keep it modern with a sharp contrasting tee, wide-leg denim, and white sneakers. For evening, layer it over a magenta slip, add gold hoops, and finish with metallic heels.

This shape is great if you like room through the bust, waist, and hips with a coat that drapes in a flattering line. It also works well if you carry more fullness through the middle or hips and prefer outerwear that gives you space and polish.

Vintage Clothing - 1960s Philip Askew London Wool Coat - STYLISTS COLLECTION 'VIP' - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

1960s Philip Askew London Wool Coat - STYLISTS COLLECTION

$210.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This is the sort of coat that makes tartan feel sharp, not costume. The palette is rich and grounded, with a classic green base crossed with red, white, and fine dark lines that read as tailored and intentional.

Made under the Philip Askew London label and made in New Zealand, it is cut in a clean, straight silhouette with a wide notched collar that frames the neckline beautifully. The front closes with tonal buttons, and the coat keeps its lines tidy through the body, giving you that polished, column-like shape that vintage does so well.

At the hips, the coat features flap pockets with a smart angled detail that echoes the check, adding structure without adding bulk. It is the kind of piece that sits neatly over knitwear and dresses, then still looks composed when worn open.

Fabric-wise, it has that fine wool blend feel with a smooth finish that holds shape and wears with confidence. A proper outer layer, made for real life.

Vintage Clothing - Claudine by Bonds Deep Teal Tailored Jacket 'VIP' - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Claudine by Bonds Deep Teal Tailored Jacket

$139.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This is the kind of jacket that quietly upgrades everything you already own. Clean, tailored, and beautifully straightforward, with a deep bottle green tone that reads polished in daylight and rich after hours.

Made by Claudine Fashionwear by Bonds, this authentic vintage piece sits in that sweet spot between shirt and jacket, with a structured collar, a neat button-through front, and patch pockets that keep it practical without disrupting the line. The silhouette is long enough to feel composed, and gently shaped through the body so it skims the frame rather than clinging.

The details do the work. The slightly rounded hem, the wide cuffs, and the tidy pocket placement give it a refined finish. It is an easy layer that works across proportions because the cut is intentional, not fussy.

Wear it buttoned up as a top with tailored trousers, or open over a slip dress, a tee and denim, or a fine knit. It is also a strong alternative to a blazer when you want structure without feeling formal.

This is good fashion built for repeat wear, and it holds its shape in a wardrobe for the long haul.

Vintage Clothing - 1970s Patricia Geometric Jacquard Jacket 'VIP' - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

1970s Patricia Geometric Jacquard Jacket

$159.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This striking jacket by New Zealand label Patricia is a testament to the adventurous textile design of the 1970s. It features an intricate geometric jacquard weave in verdant green and earthy beige, sparked with subtle metallic threads that catch the light without overpowering the eye.

The silhouette is elegantly streamlined. A collarless round neckline and button-down front create a clean vertical line, while the gently puffed shoulders and nipped waist offer a sharp, feminine profile. Contrasting black trim at the hip pockets adds a grounding detail to the complex pattern.

This piece is a structural dream for defining the waist. The longline cut skims the hips to elongate the torso. It is versatile enough to wear as a statement top buttoned fully or open as a jacket.

Style it with wide-leg wool trousers for a texture-rich winter look. Alternatively, pair it with dark denim and boots to bring a touch of vintage luxury to the weekend. This is a locally made treasure that combines bold design with enduring wearability.

Vintage Clothing - Le Canari Sage Green Chinoiserie Frog Closure Jacket ' VIP' - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Le Canari Sage Green Chinoiserie Frog Closure Jacket

$169.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Originally brought to New Zealand from the UK, this Le Canari jacket is a wearable conversation starter, the kind you keep reaching for because it oozes style. The base is a soft silk in sage green with a smooth, satin-like finish, printed with painterly florals in pinks, lilacs, and sunny accents. Then it gets even better: the contrast panels in a geometric key pattern add structure and a crisp frame, especially through the front placket, cuffs, and pockets.

The frog closures give it that classic chinoiserie influence, while the overall shape stays modern and easy, hip length, relaxed through the body, and ideal for layering. It is brilliant over a simple dress, sharp with tailored trousers, and unexpectedly cool with denim.

It reads like collected style. Not trend. Not costume. Just a great jacket with a point of view.

This is the kind of piece that makes an outfit feel instantly intentional. A deep emerald green, lightly lustrous jacket with a traditional mandarin collar and classic knotted frog closures, finished with embroidered chrysanthemum blooms scattered like fireworks across a night garden.

The structure is wonderfully wearable. It has a clean, straight silhouette with enough ease through the body to layer over a fine knit or a crisp shirt. The padded quilting gives you that satisfying feel of warmth without being too bulky, and the black reversible interior means you can flip the mood entirely when you want something more understated.

The embroidery is the star. White, gold, and coppery tones pop against the green satin-like surface, and the texture play between smooth sheen and quilted stitching is pure vintage craftsmanship. It looks elevated with tailored trousers and loafers, and equally cool with denim and a simple tee.

This is a statement jacket that still behaves like a practical one. It is comfort, detail, and story in one wearable layer.

HISTORY: The word chinoiserie /ʃɪnˈwɑːzəri/ comes from the French term Chinois which translates as Chinese or, after the Chinese taste (as in style). Chinoiserie means a Western or, European interpretation of an Asian style and may not an necessarily be of an actual Asian design. Painted Bird has an array of garments we consider 'chinoiserie' from a number of Asian countries but for purposes of website search - we offer as one collection. We believe they are all beautiful, unique and wearable art for the now. Fashion designers have repeated these designs over a variety of eras. Enjoy!

Vintage Clothing - Suede Seventies Sensation - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Seventies Sensation Clientell Suede Tan Tailored Jacket

$189.00 $149.00 Save $40.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This Clientell suede jacket is that warm toffee-caramel tone. It has a beautifully tailored vintage shape with a proper collar and lapel, a nipped-in waist, and a longer line that sits around the upper hip.

The devil is in the details: panelled seams for structure, flap pockets, and a clean front closure that keeps the look polished rather than fussy. It is lined, so it slides on easily over knitwear and dresses.

Try it over a cobalt knit and wide-leg denim adding a bright cheerful scarf. It also looks great over a turquoise printed dress with mustard heels, or a patterned midi for an upbeat, modern clash.

This shape is great if you like definition through the waist with a jacket that skims the hips rather than cutting across them. It also works well if you are a bit fuller through the bust and shoulders and want shaping through the body without feeling boxed in.

Authentic Vintage Fur Jacket Coat in Deep Chocolate Brown

$189.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This fur coat is pure winter glamour, rich chocolate-brown with that soft, light-catching texture that makes even a simple outfit feel elevated. The cut is tidy and wearable, sitting neatly through the body so you get warmth without bulk.

It has a clean, classic silhouette with a soft stand collar and a structured shoulder line. The fit skims rather than clings, making it easy to layer over knitwear, a slip dress, or a tailored shirt.

This shape works beautifully if you like a jacket that sits comfortably through the bust and shoulders and then follows the line of the body without grabbing at the waist or hips. The measurements suggest a clean fit through the torso, with room to move and layer.

History: The word chinoiserie /ʃɪnˈwɑːzəri/ comes from the French term Chinois which translates as Chinese or, after the Chinese taste (as in style).

Painted Bird has an array of garments we consider 'chinoiserie' from a number of Asian countries but for purposes of website search - we offer as one collection. We believe they are all beautiful, unique and wearable art for the now. Fashion designers have repeated these designs over a variety of eras. Enjoy!

Vintage Clothing - Stax NZ Black Polished Cotton Tailored Knee Length Rosette Jacket - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Stax NZ Black Polished Cotton Tailored Knee Length Rosette Jacket

$149.00 $129.00 Save $20.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Here's a great piece of New Zealand fashion history in this polished cotton black with a stunning slick, light-catching finish jacket. The neckline is the star: a cascade of sculpted rosettes and pleated trim that frames the face beautifully, then drops into a clean, tailored line through the body.

It sits fitted through the shoulders and waist, then skims to the knee for an elegant, elongating silhouette. Easy to dress up simple denim, sharpen a slip dress, or add a bit of drama to a plain skirt without the need for any extra accessories. Perfect for a wedding or event to elevate a simple outfit!

Try it with wide-leg trousers and a crisp white tee, adding silver loafers. Or go full colour-contrast: a white silk camisole underneath with emerald trousers. For evening, layer it over a fuchsia slip dress and add gold earrings and metallic heels.

Vintage Clothing - Angela Wickstead Peplum Jacket - Painted Bird Vintage Boutique & The Aviary - Coats & Jackets

Authentic Vintage Angela Wickstead Auckland Black Peplum Jacket | New Zealand Designer

$349.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This Angela Wickstead jacket is a genuine piece of Auckland fashion history, and she is beautiful. Fine black cotton blend, nipped at the waist, with a soft peplum at the back that gives the whole silhouette a lovely ease. The satinesque collar adds a clean stroke of contrast at the neckline, and the long self-tie ribbon at the front means you can wear it open, loosely knotted or cinched, however suits you on the day. The three-quarter sleeves have a neat turned cuff, the kind of detail that tells you a lot about how this was made. Full satin lining inside. The whole jacket sits well on the body and moves with you rather than holding you in place.

Wear it over an ivory or cream blouse with a full black midi skirt for an outfit that is polished and complete. Layer it over a deep burgundy wrap dress for evening. Pair it with a warm caramel knit dress, a simple gold chain and a low block heel for an Auckland autumn that looks exactly as good as you feel. Or go for a cobalt blue silk blouse with a wide ivory skirt and let this jacket be the piece the whole look is built around. This is a jacket for women who love clothes. Who appreciate a defined waist, a properly finished interior and the particular pleasure of wearing something with a real story behind it. A piece that moves between a gallery opening, a long lunch and a board meeting and looks right at home in all three.
