GapKids And The Elementary School Band Jacket It No Longer Has



GapKids debuted its Stella McCartney line this week and (adult) fashion blogs have taken notice of a particular band jacket that has been selling out all over the city - and online, where it doesn't exist.

I strolled over to my local GapKids on the UES on Monday to check out the little jacket with a big reputation. I had heard that the largest size was roomy enough for a small, skinny adult to fit into. Well this was very untrue. The jacket, while attractive in a drum major sort of way, had the approximate shoulder width of maybe a foot and a half... and costs over $100.

I can't wait to see one of those grown-up fashionistas with the body of a pre-pubescent boy walking down the street in one, unable to move her arms.

I did the same thing and couldn't find anything over age 10 in the boys. I'm incredibly looking forward to seeing who stuffed their small adult bodies into this collabo.
