The Grant ensemble features reVamp's only men's jacket. This jacket was copied from a photograph taken of a movie star in 1947. Hollywood jacket, also known as a "slacker jacket" named for the apparent inclination of those men who were seen wearing them. This is a very casual jacket that has no structure built into it. It echoes the cut of men's shirts of the period, but these jackets would have been stitched in heavy wool. The Grant jacket has large patch pockets and four buttons at the center front. The Grant jacket may be stitched in solid gray and black houndstooth, two-tone black wool gabardine with houndstooth front panels, or as seen in our Ode to Pendleton, in heavy green plaid serge.

Grant trousers were modeled off of an illustration found in a catalogue for Scotch Woolen Mills Tailors. This catalogue of men's silhouettes was intended to be used when ordering made to order garments for the Spring and Summer season of 1944. What is most interesting about this catalogue is that men's vest silhouettes are offered as well as cuffs on trousers. Both these items were eliminated for consumption in the General Limitation Order which outlined rationed items during the war. These half peg-topped pants have a tuck at the front in order to shape the top of the high waist of the trousers. They have cut away pockets in the front and double welt pockets in the back. The 1 1/2" waistband has belt loops. The bottom of the trousers are also "pegged" which means that the come to a quick taper at the cuff. The Grant trousers can be stitched in either tan linen-rayon or black wool gabardine.
