Rainwear Central Rainwear Forum

What's lovely looking mac and once again great thanks Rothbhoy for this. Wonderful shape and dhen to it. If i had to guess colourI would go for mid blue

The Tall Guy mac is wonderful particularly its completely practical length.

The Capital City mac is so 1980/1990's very thin soft material in the days of big hair and padded shoulders. I remember seeing so many lovely women wearing them usually black to City offices.

There was a succession of Goddiggers movies but this I think the ok nly one featuring plastic rainwear. I've often wondered when plastic macs were first available and this must be ones of the earliest films featuring them.

As to the ...

Can anyone help? There was a flm made sometime in the 30@s in which some show girls start off travalling on a train. The next 'scene, two girls come out of a lift (elevator both wearing long translucent macs, and one goes into an office where she hangs the mac up before saitting down behind a desk ...

Wonderful find i just adore those old plastic macs that were common in the US up to the sixties, so full and transparent

1983, ah probably the peak year for those lovely long plastic macs, they were everywhere and still a fashion item. Every clothes shop stocked them in a variety of colours. C&A had one of the best selections but I got a lovely green one at Peacocks, quite heavy plastic but super smooth and soft.
