Bomber today's hot trend, must have jacket in every wardrobe. But
what a strange name? Let's find out together ;)
Originally it was a flight jacket or a bomber jacket of American
pilots' uniform in world war one and two. The classic model was made of
heavy-duty leather with zip front, elastic cuffs, waist and fur collar to
protect pilots from the cold weather. Specifically during 1950's it got into
civilian lifestyle. As time passed the bomber became immortal star of the
fashion industry and the popular culture's essential actor among both genders
women and men. It is important to note that civilian fashion bombers are based
on the latest model of flight jacket MA-1.
Ma-1 nylon structure; elastic collar, cuffs and waist; sage green
tone; orange lining.
The modern model is recognizable by the original signs. However
materials, colors and structure are quite different. You can find nylon,
velvet, satin, leather, like-leather, suede, with fur classic or elastic collar,
thin or thick, casual, elegant and sport bombers. Some jackets are decorated
with beads, sequins and various prints. Their colors range from delicate to
bright. We may wear bombers even in summer season because it is fashionable and
stylish. In addition, contemporary designers combine bomber jackets with elegant
evening dress or casual street style.
